The Saudi government has digitized its visa process through the official platforms of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Saudi Arabian Airlines (SAUDIA) website, as well as the online portal operated by the Government of Saudi Arabia (Absher or the Visa Inquiry service). To check your visa status, you will need your passport number and application reference number, which are provided after submitting your visa application.
This online system allows applicants to verify whether their visa has been approved, is under review, or has been rejected. It also provides details such as visa validity dates, entry type (single or multiple), and any conditions attached to the visa.
It is important to confirm your visa status before making travel arrangements to ensure that your entry into Saudi Arabia is authorized and valid. With this digital system, the Kingdom continues to improve transparency, efficiency, and accessibility for international visitors.
