Saudi Arabia Visa from Pakistan
Saudi Arabia now issues several distinct visa types to Pakistani travellers, and choosing the right one matters.
Saudi Arabia has substantially reformed its visa framework. Alongside the Umrah visa administered through the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah's Nusuk platform, the Kingdom now issues tourist visas covering leisure travel and a range of business visit categories.
For pilgrims, the Umrah visa remains tied to confirmed accommodation and travel arrangements registered on the official platform, which is why it is arranged as part of a package rather than independently. Our Umrah visa page sets out the documentation and current vaccination requirements in detail.
For everyone else, the tourist visa has opened up destinations that were effectively closed to leisure travellers a few years ago — AlUla, the Red Sea coast, Riyadh and Jeddah's historic district. Business visit visas are arranged against an invitation from a Saudi entity.

Saudi Arabia Visa FAQs
Saudi Arabia has permitted holders of certain visa categories to perform Umrah, subject to conditions and to booking the necessary permits through the official platform. The rules have changed more than once. Because getting this wrong affects your ability to travel, confirm the current position with our team rather than relying on older guidance.
Meningococcal ACYW vaccination is required for pilgrims, and polio vaccination documentation is required of Pakistani passport holders. Pakistan requires NADRA-integrated digital vaccination proof for outbound Hajj and Umrah travellers. See our vaccination certificate guide.
Typically a few working days with a complete file, and longer during Ramadan and peak seasons. Build a margin into your planning.
No. Visa decisions are made solely by the relevant embassy, consulate or immigration authority. We make sure your application is complete, consistent and properly evidenced, which is what genuinely affects outcomes. Anyone promising a guaranteed visa should be avoided.
Processing times are set by the mission and vary by season and application volume. Appointment availability is frequently the bigger constraint. Apply with a comfortable margin ahead of your travel date — we will advise on realistic timing for your case.
Our assistance fee depends on the destination and the complexity of the application, and is quoted before we begin. Embassy fees and application centre charges are separate and paid at the prescribed rates. Contact us on 051-8465006-7 for a quotation.
