Saudi Arabia Introduces Age Requirement for Tourist eVisa

Saudi Arabia has implemented a new age requirement for its tourist eVisa application process, stipulating that applicants must be at least 18 years old. This regulation is part of the updated terms and conditions published by the Saudi government.

Individuals under 18 are classified as minors and cannot independently apply for the eVisa. However, the rules permit adults to apply on behalf of minors, provided they agree to the platform's terms and confirm their legal authority to act for the minor.

Additionally, adults applying for others must also confirm their authorization. Beyond the age requirement, eligibility for the eVisa is contingent upon nationality, with the Saudi government listing 68 countries whose citizens are permitted to apply.

Citizens from countries not included in this list are ineligible for the eVisa service and must seek alternative visa options to enter Saudi Arabia.
