Saudi Visa from Albania, Approved in as Little as 6 Hours

Yes. Albanian passport holders need a visa, but Albania is on Saudi Arabia's eVisa-eligible list (added in 2023). You apply 100% online for a tourist eVisa, with no embassy visit and no courier. The approved eVisa arrives by email as a printable PDF, ready to show on arrival at Riyadh, Jeddah or any Saudi entry point.

All-inclusive prices start at $209 for a single-entry eVisa with Standard processing (72 hours). Priority (24 hours) is $229 and Express (6 hours) is $259. Multiple-entry visas, valid for one year, are $229 Standard, $249 Priority and $279 Express. All government and service fees are included, so there are no hidden add-ons.

Our checkout is fully online and secure. We accept all major international cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and UnionPay), as well as Apple Pay and Google Pay, whether issued by an Albanian bank or a foreign one. Payments are processed in US dollars, so you can apply from Tirana, Durrës, Vlorë or anywhere in the world. If a card is declined, our support team sends a secure alternative link the same day.

Yes. Since 2025, Umrah can be performed on the Saudi tourist eVisa outside the Hajj season, no separate Umrah visa is needed. You must reserve your Umrah permit and accommodation through the official Nusuk platform before performing it. During the Hajj season, entry to Makkah is limited to Hajj-permit holders.

We offer three speeds: Standard within 72 hours, Priority within 24 hours, and Express within just 6 hours. Processing starts once your complete application and payment are received. Most Albanian travellers choose Priority for the best balance of speed and value.

Single Entry (90-day validity) is ideal if Saudi Arabia is your only stop or a one-time Umrah trip. Multiple Entry is valid for a full year and lets you visit repeatedly, up to 90 days per stay. It is best for frequent travellers, business visitors or pilgrims planning to return. Multiple-entry visas start at $229.

You can stay up to 90 days per entry. A single-entry visa is valid for 90 days; a multiple-entry visa stays valid for one year with up to 90 days per visit.

flynas operates a seasonal nonstop flight from Tirana (TIA) to Riyadh (RUH), roughly June to August, of about four hours. For Jeddah or Madinah, or outside summer, the easiest route is one stop with Turkish Airlines via Istanbul, around 8 to 9 hours to Jeddah in total. Albanian Umrah operators also run group flights from Tirana around Ramadan.

An Albanian passport valid for at least 6 months from arrival, a recent passport photo with a plain white background taken within the last 6 months, and a confirmed hotel booking for your stay (we can arrange one for $5 at checkout). You won't need bank statements, a letter of invitation, or a return ticket.

Yes. Every traveller, including infants and minors, needs a separate eVisa application, even if the child is on a parent's passport. Parents can submit applications for their children through our platform in a few minutes each.

Your eVisa is valid at every Saudi entry point. You can arrive at the international airports of Riyadh (RUH), Jeddah (JED), Dammam (DMM) or Madinah (MED), or cross by land and sea borders.

Yes. Saudi Arabia's mandatory travel health insurance is bundled into your eVisa and covers emergency medical care during your stay. It does not cover trip cancellation or lost baggage, so a separate travel policy is still worth considering.

Approval is always at the discretion of the Saudi immigration authorities, so no service can guarantee it. Our expert review catches the small errors that cause most refusals, which is how we keep a 98% approval rate. If an application is refused, our team will explain your options.

Your approved eVisa arrives as a PDF by email. A printout is the safest thing to show on arrival and at airline check-in, and a copy on your phone works as a backup. We recommend carrying both.

November to February is the most comfortable, with mild, sunny days across Riyadh, Jeddah and AlUla, and it lines up with Riyadh Season. The summer months are very hot, especially inland, so most travellers prefer the cooler season.

Yes. Women can visit Saudi Arabia independently without a male guardian, and an abaya is not required for tourists. Modest clothing that covers the shoulders and knees is recommended in public.

A few simple ones. Alcohol and recreational drugs are prohibited, dress modestly in public, and keep a copy of your eVisa with you. Saudi Arabia is welcoming to tourists, and following these customs keeps your trip smooth.
