Five-Year Multiple-Entry Visit Visas Soon Available for British Citizens
Dubai, UAE, October 10, 2018: British citizens travelling to Saudi Arabia will soon be eligible for multiple-entry visit visas valid for up to five years.
This comes as a result of an approved Memorandum of Understanding between the governments of Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom, that aims at facilitating the issuance of visit visas to citizens of both countries travelling for tourism, business, family visit or medical treatment.
The new law will come into force once all necessary legal procedures have been completed by the contracting parties.
Background
Visitor visas to Saudi Arabia are typically issued with a validity of six, 12 or 24 months, at the discretion of the visa issuing authority. For citizens of countries which have existing bilateral agreements with Saudi Arabia, the visit visas are issued with a longer validity.
