With an aim to revive local tourism, the Saudi Commission
for Tourism and Antiquities (SCTA) has approved provisions to issue tourism
visas and regulate the system. If the proposals are finally approved, the SCTA
would issue visas in coordination with the Ministries of Interior and Foreign
Affairs.
The Kingdom has a tourism market in areas with a strong
historical background, like Madain Saleh or Al-Ahsa's ancient castles. Although
investors and businessmen in the tourism field are pushing for tourism visa,
procedures for its issuance will only be clarified by the SCTA in the coming weeks.
