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

Yes. Swedish passport holders need a visa, but you apply online for a tourist eVisa with no embassy visit. Choose single entry (90-day validity) or multiple entry (valid one year), and the approved eVisa arrives by email as a printable PDF.

Not currently. There is no nonstop Stockholm to Saudi Arabia service, so you connect once, most commonly via Istanbul (Turkish Airlines), Doha (Qatar Airways), Dubai (Emirates) or Frankfurt (Lufthansa). Total travel time is around eight hours.

Yes, outside the Hajj season. Your tourist eVisa covers entry, and the Umrah permit itself is free through the official Nusuk app. During the Hajj season, entry to Makkah is limited to Hajj-permit holders.

Yes. Sweden uses the krona rather than the euro, and your krona Visa or Mastercard is accepted. The fee is charged in US dollars and your bank converts from krona at its exchange rate. Apple Pay and Google Pay work too.

Saudi Arabia is 1 hour ahead of Sweden in summer and 2 hours ahead in winter, since Saudi Arabia does not change its clocks. Jet lag is minimal on a trip from Sweden.

The most frequent one-stops route through Istanbul with Turkish Airlines, Doha with Qatar Airways, Dubai with Emirates, or Frankfurt with Lufthansa. Choose by schedule and price; total journeys are usually around eight to nine hours.

No. Saudi Arabia states there is no restriction based on the countries you have previously visited, so an Israeli stamp in your Swedish passport is not a stated bar to a tourist eVisa.

English is widely used across Saudi tourism, hotels and airports, so Swedish travellers get by comfortably without Arabic. Our own application support is provided in English.

November to March offers the mildest weather across Riyadh, Jeddah and AlUla, and lines up with Riyadh Season. The June to August months are extremely hot, especially inland.

Everyday crime is low, and women can travel and stay in hotels independently, with no male guardian required for tourists. Always check the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs reseinformation for the current advice before you book.

A single-entry eVisa is valid for 90 days with up to a 90-day stay. A multiple-entry eVisa is valid for one year with up to 90 days per visit.

A Swedish passport valid at least 6 months from arrival, a recent white-background passport photo taken within the last 6 months, and a confirmed hotel booking (we can add one for $5 at checkout). No bank statements, invitation letter, or return ticket are needed.

All-inclusive prices run from $209 for single entry (Standard, 72 hours) up to $279 for multiple entry (Express, 6 hours), in US dollars with the government fees included. There are no hidden add-ons.

Choose Express and your approved eVisa can arrive in as little as 6 hours, or Priority within 24 hours. Standard (72 hours) is the value option when you are planning ahead.

Yes. Every traveller, including infants and minors, needs a separate application, even if the child is on a parent's passport. You can submit the whole family's applications together.

Your eVisa is valid at every Saudi entry point, including Riyadh (RUH), Jeddah (JED), Dammam (DMM) and Madinah (MED). Most connecting itineraries from Sweden land in Riyadh or Jeddah.

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 having.

No. SaudieVisa.com is a private visa-assistance service operated by Travel Rox, Inc., not affiliated with the Saudi government. You may also apply directly on the official portal at a lower cost. Our fee covers expert document review, error prevention, photo validation, tracking and dedicated support.
