Effective February 1, 2025, Saudi Arabia has suspended the issuance of one-year multiple-entry visas for citizens of 14 countries, including India, Pakistan, and Egypt.
Under the new regulations, travelers from the 14 countries are now eligible only for single-entry visas valid for a maximum stay of 30 days.
This adjustment applies to visas for tourism, business, and family visits. However, diplomatic, residency, Hajj, and Umrah visas remain unaffected.
Saudi authorities have indicated that individuals who overstayed or participated in unauthorized labor and Hajj activities misused the previous multiple-entry visa system.
The 14 countries impacted by this policy are:
- 🇩🇿 Algeria
- 🇧🇩 Bangladesh
- 🇪🇬 Egypt
- 🇪🇹 Ethiopia
- 🇮🇳 India
- 🇮🇩 Indonesia
- 🇮🇶 Iraq
- 🇯🇴 Jordan
- 🇲🇦 Morocco
- 🇳🇬 Nigeria
- 🇵🇰 Pakistan
- 🇸🇩 Sudan
- 🇹🇳 Tunisia
- 🇾🇪 Yemen
This measure reflects Saudi Arabia’s efforts to regulate visa issuance and ensure compliance with its immigration and pilgrimage policies.
