Total Cost of the Holiday or Visit:
Do consult the travel agent regarding their refund policy. An unforeseen event may lead to
cancellation of your trip or holiday. If this happens, it always helps if you can get the
money back.
Traveling with Family:
If you are traveling to Saudi Arabia with spouse and children, the travel insurance must
cover them. Therefore, it always helps to be informed before starting your journey and buy
the right travel insurance package.

Assalamu Alaikum, I am kindly requesting an update regarding my visit visa application (Order No. 806526013), which was submitted on 07/10/2025. My flight is scheduled for 25/12/2025, I would greatly appreciate it if my visa could be issued as soon as possible, as the travel date is very near. Thank you for your support and assistance. Best regards,
Mishab Mohiyudheen
Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Mishab Mohiyudheen, an Indian citizen who was born and raised in Saudi Arabia. I am currently an Iqama holder residing under my father’s sponsorship. I am writing to request your assistance regarding an urgent travel matter. Recently, my passport was stolen in Rome, and I have applied for a new passport, which will be issued within the next few days. As soon as I receive my new passport, I must travel back to Saudi Arabia immediately in order to renew my Iqama, which is due for renewal in January. Because the passport number will change, I kindly request clarification on the following: 1. Will traveling to Saudi Arabia with my new passport (different passport number) cause any issues with entry or with my existing Iqama? 2. Is it necessary to update my new passport details in any system before travelling? 3. Could you please provide the correct department email or phone number where I can confirm this information or request an appointment if needed? I have been delayed solely because I was waiting for the issuance of my new passport, and I must return to Saudi Arabia as soon as possible to avoid complications with my residency status. I would be very grateful for any guidance, confirmation, or instructions you can provide.
