Do I need a visa for Saudi Arabia from Denmark?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Danish travellers can obtain a tourist e-Visa online, and a visa on arrival is available at some entry points. Preparing the e-Visa before departure is recommended.
Danish nationals are among the nationalities eligible for the Saudi tourist e-Visa, which is applied for online before the trip. A visa on arrival may also be issued at certain airports, but getting the e-Visa in advance avoids queues. The passport must remain valid for at least six months.
Do you need a visa?
Yes, but the process is straightforward for Danes. Saudi Arabia offers an online tourist e-Visa and, at certain entry points, a visa on arrival. For a purpose other than tourism (work, extended business), a standard consular visa is still required.
How and where to apply
Danish applicants apply through the official portal visa.mofa.gov.sa or the official tourism platform before departure. The form is completed online with a photo and passport details. If you choose the visa on arrival, first confirm that your entry airport actually offers it.
Documents and fees
Have a passport valid for at least six months, a compliant photo and an address of stay in Saudi Arabia. Medical insurance is usually bundled into the tourist e-Visa. The exact fee is not confirmed here: check the official portal for the current rate.
Processing and tips
The tourist e-Visa is often issued quickly, but the time is not guaranteed, so apply a few days before you leave. Keep the confirmation, printed or digital, with your passport. Respect local stay rules and the authorised duration shown on the visa.
Common mistakes
Do not rely on the visa on arrival by default: not every entry point issues it, and the e-Visa is safer. Check that the name and passport number entered match the document exactly. Finally, avoid overstaying the authorised period.
