Hi-

I am overwhelmed and confused on the visa process. I am 25 muslim F from US. I would like to get a personal visa to stay with another female friend while I job search in KSA. How long are visas granted for? How long do they typically approve for you stay?

Is it realistic to do it this way?

Any and all advice please!

Hello,
For your information, KSA only give 6 types of visas:

1- Saudi Arabia Business Visa聽 = By invitation from any company within KSA

2- Saudi Arabia Work Visa = Same as above

3- Saudi Arabia Visitor Visa = Invitation from KSA citizen

4- Saudi Family Visit Visa = Invitation for expats working in KSA, only for close family member.

5- Saudi Tourist Visa = For visiting tourist attraction in KSA

6- (New) Green Card Visa = For businessman or entrepreneur. They will have the same privilege as KSA citizens (can buy house, bring workers of their own). Very expensive fees.

You can check below link for more information:

Hope this help answering your question.

Xpired- question- do you know IF a company wants you to come under a business visa for a while, can you bring your infant while on that visa?

I suggest that you find a job BEFORE you go to the KSA

Sorry for the late reply, I am not sure about Business visa but if working visa you will have {blocked content} options to bring your family, yellow slip (iqama-resident) and white slip (family visit visa). If Green card you can bring anybody you like.
