The tourist-eVisa facts on this page were checked against the official Saudi eVisa portal linked in Source; that portal also sets the 66-country eligibility limit, and it does not cover the Umrah-via-Nusuk route, the employment-visa route or their figures. Where an official source contradicted the page, the page was corrected; where no official source supported a figure, the figure was removed. Checked 2026-09-16. Requirements change — check the official source before you apply.
