GOOD TO KNOW
Entry requirements for Saudi Arabia:
- Visa
Saudi Arabia has been granting tourist visas to nationals of 49 countries, since 27 September 2019. According to the Saudi authorities, it is possible to apply for this type of visa directly on arrival, using dedicated terminals at the Riyadh and Jeddah airports. However, it is recommended that French citizens wishing to travel to Saudi Arabia obtain an electronic visa through Saudi Visa (https://visa.visitsaudi.com/) before travelling. In any case, visitors must be able to present the required supporting documents upon arrival, particularly those regarding medical cover.
The Saudi authorities do not issue visas to holders of passports bearing Israeli visas or stamps.
- Customs regulations
On arrival in Saudi Arabia, luggage generally undergoes a thorough inspection. Prohibitions on the import of certain goods must be respected to avoid confiscation and a tedious search.
