Saudi Arabia visa processing process

If you want to apply for a Saudi visa, you need to find an intermediary. The embassy does not accept individual applications, but only visa applications from designated institutions. The visa for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia refers to the formalities that China needs to complete when going to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Visa is a kind of license issued by a government agency of a country according to its own laws to foreigners who apply for entry, exit or transit.

The visa processing process in Saudi Arabia is as follows:

1, get a passport

Passport is the only document to prove a person's identity abroad. Without it, everything is empty talk.

Step 2 receive an invitation

Saudi Arabia has no tourist visa and can only apply for a business visa. If you want to apply for a business visa, you must have a business visa invitation letter, which is mainly provided by Saudi companies.

3. Contact the designated visa service center.

Since Saudi Arabia does not support the submission of materials by itself, the holder can only mail the materials to the visa service center to apply for a visa.

Step 4 prepare materials

Prepare materials according to the required visa materials and precautions notified by the visa service center. If in doubt, ask the visa service center immediately.

5. Submission

After the materials are prepared, they will be mailed directly to the visa service center, which will submit the applicant's materials to the embassy. If any materials are missing, please ask the applicant to fill in the materials.

Step 6 wait for the visa to be issued

After all the preparatory work is completed, the applicant can wait for the issuance of the visa. Generally, there will be no visa refusal or bad record, and visas will be issued. After the visa is issued, the applicant will be sent home directly, and the applicant can rest assured.
