How the new visa process works

With the new International, investors are no longer required to visit a Saudi embassy for visa applications physically.

This digital visa offers not only convenience but also versatility, permitting multiple entries and holding a validity period of up to one year.

Some beneficiaries may receive access immediately, enabling them to explore investment opportunities in the Kingdom.
