Saudi Arabia Reopens the 2-Year Visit Visa: Reconnect with Family or Friends Easier Than Ever

3 min read June 28, 2026

If you have been waiting for the right time to visit family in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the wait is over. Following the temporary visa restrictions typically implemented during the peak pilgrimage seasons, Saudi Arabia has officially reopened its 2-Year Multiple-Entry Visit Visa.

At Anerva Tours & Travels, headquartered in Wayanad but servicing clients globally, we are already helping families reunite by managing the complex documentation required for this long-term visa. Here is everything you need to know about the reopened 2-year visa and how to secure yours without the stress.

What is the Saudi 2-Year Multiple Entry Visit Visa?

The 2-year visit visa is a long-term travel document designed primarily for family reunification. Unlike standard short-term tourist visas that expire quickly, this visa provides exceptional flexibility for foreign nationals who have immediate family members residing in Saudi Arabia.

It allows the visa holder to enter and exit the Kingdom multiple times over a continuous 24-month period, making it the perfect solution for parents, spouses, and children who wish to make frequent visits without the hassle of reapplying for a new visa every few months.

Key Benefits of the 2-Year Visa

Securing a long-term visa completely changes how you travel. The primary advantages include:

  • Unmatched Flexibility: Enter and exit Saudi Arabia as many times as you need within the two-year validity window.
  • Cost-Effective in the Long Run: Avoid paying continuous processing and application fees for single-entry or 90-day visas.
  • Extended Stays: Enjoy longer continuous stays with your relatives (subject to specific entry stamp durations, typically up to 90 days per entry before requiring a border run or digital extension).
  • Peace of Mind: Book flights and travel on short notice without waiting for embassy approvals.

Eligibility and Required Documentation

Because this visa grants extended access to the Kingdom, the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs requires stringent proof of relationship and financial stability.

Document TypeSpecific Requirements
Valid PassportMust be valid for at least six months from the date of application submission.
Proof of RelationshipCertified marriage certificates for spouses, or birth certificates for parents/children, proving the link to the Saudi resident.
Sponsor DocumentationThe inviting family member in Saudi Arabia must provide a valid Iqama (residency permit) and an official invitation letter approved by the Chamber of Commerce.
Medical InsuranceMandatory comprehensive health insurance covering the duration of the stay within the Kingdom.
PhotographsRecent passport-sized photos with a stark white background.

Note: All civil documents (like birth and marriage certificates) usually require proper attestation before submission.
