The Saudi embassy in Egypt announced the launch of its e-visa service for Egyptians on Thursday. The Saudi Foreign Ministry launched a new initiative to cancel the visa sticker on the holder’s passport, switching to e-visa. The Saudi Foreign Ministry launched the service in January, which allows for issuing a transit visa for tourists coming by air electronically. It aims to encourage travel to Saudi Arabia for any purposes and facilitate the procedures for obtaining an entry visa. The transit visa allows individuals to pass through Saudi Arabia and is applicable for short stays of over 12 hours.
