RIYADH: British nationals can enter Saudi Arabia for up to six months on a single entry under the new Electronic Visa Waiver (EVW), the Kingdom’s Foreign Ministry announced Wednesday.
The new scheme allows UK citizens to enter the Kingdom for tourism, business, study or medical treatment and stay for up to 6 months on a single entry.
UK travelers can apply through the ministry’s visas portal at visa.mofa.gov.sa from 90 days to 48 hours prior to their trip.
Approvals will be emailed back within 24 hours of the application.
The UK’s electronic visa waiver scheme was made available to Saudi citizens last year.
