Saudi Arabia visa status checker

How to check your Saudi Arabia application

Requests and visas covered by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs enquiry service.

Step-by-step instructions

1. Open the Saudi national service description and use Start the service to reach the current official platform.
2. Select the enquiry for a submitted request and choose the request type. Enter the request number and verification information required on the screen.
3. Submit the enquiry and read the result. For a sponsor-submitted case, obtain the reference from the sponsor.

Choose the correct application type

Saudi visa categories use different platforms. Match the enquiry to your original request rather than treating a tourist eVisa, work request and residence permission as one record.

Information to keep ready

Keep your application acknowledgement, submission date, visa category and the name of the submitting office available. The official service determines which identifiers are required. Enter personal information only in that service; VisaWand does not need your passport number, login password or application reference.

If the record cannot be found

Compare the service and reference with your receipt and check the fields requested on the official screen. A technical error or missing result does not establish a decision. Follow the handling office’s help instructions if the record still cannot be retrieved.

After an update or decision

Read the actual notice and any document request, collection instruction or deadline. Passport movement, the validity of an issued permission and progress of a pending application are separate checks. Use the decision notice to confirm the outcome and next action.
