Pakistan: Saudi Arabia has become the top international Pakistani people. Thus, the good news is that Saudi Arabia eases the tourist visa requirements for Pakistanis. Now, you are just required to submit your bank statement, which must show a minimum monthly credit amount of USD 750 or its equivalent.
Previously, in 2023, around 43% of Pakistani tourists visited Saudi Arabia. In 2024, the country aims to welcome 2.7 million Pakistani tourists. Thus, to meet this growing number of Pakistani visitors in Saudi Arabia, the country decided to make the tourist visa requirements easy for them.
Furthermore, the visitors are required to get a visa before traveling to the country through one of the 6 Tasheer offices established across different cities of Pakistan, such as:
- Quetta
- Lahore
- Multan
- Karachi
- Peshawar
- Islamabad
Additionally, the Tasheer offices offer a convenient and user-friendly experience. The offices offer the following services:
- Visa application guidance
- biometric enrolment
- status tracking
- passport delivery
Note: Those visitors must first make an appointment on the Tasheer website.
It is pertinent to mention that Saudi Arabia previously introduced a one-year multiple-entry visa to Pakistani visitors. However, this visa is mainly offered to them this time for personal visits, which can be weddings or functions or visiting friends or family.
