Visiting Saudi Arabia: Somali citizen → Saudi Arabia
🛂
You need a visa from a Saudi embassy
Somalia passport holders are not on the tourist e-Visa eligibility list, so apply for a visit visa through a Saudi embassy or consulate.
The bottom line
- Check the official Visit Saudi portal first — eligibility for the e-Visa changes and you may qualify another way (e.g. holding a valid US/UK/Schengen visa).
- Otherwise apply through the Saudi embassy/consulate with jurisdiction over where you live.
