Discover visa requirements for your trip

In short

Czech nationals can generally obtain a tourist visa for Saudi Arabia through the e-Visa applied for online before departure; a visa on arrival may also be offered to some eligible travellers.

Saudi Arabia issues Czech citizens a tourist e-Visa to be requested online on the official portal before the trip, with a visa-on-arrival option in some cases. The passport must remain valid for at least six months. The fee and validity period are to be confirmed with the official source.

Do you need a visa?

Yes. Czech citizens must hold a visa for Saudi Arabia. The tourist e-Visa, usually multiple-entry, covers tourism, family visits and Umrah, but does not permit work or the Hajj pilgrimage under this status.

How and where to apply

Apply online on the official Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal (visa.mofa.gov.sa) or via the official app: create an account, complete the form, upload a photo and pay the fee. Eligible travellers may, subject to the rules in force, obtain the visa on arrival at international airports.

Documents and fees

Prepare a passport valid for at least six months, an ID photo, proof of accommodation and an online payment method; medical insurance is often bundled into the e-Visa. The fee amount is not confirmed here: check it on the official portal, as it can vary depending on the option chosen.

Processing and tips

The tourist e-Visa is often issued quickly, but allow several days before departure as the timeframe is not guaranteed. Respect local dress and conduct rules and keep a copy of your visa. Check the length of stay authorised per entry.

Common mistakes

Common mistakes are confusing the tourist e-Visa with a work or Hajj visa, presenting a passport with less than six months' validity, and using unofficial sites. Always use the government portal and confirm the entry channel before travelling.
