Salam Lalarukh,
I need some help from U. My wife is pregnant & I want to call my mother & father here in KSA. I have already applied through MOFA website for their visit visa, but it has got rejected 3 times with no reason specified. Could you please tell me;
- the manual procedure to apply for visit visa
- how much time it takes approximately
- where is this istekhdam office in Riyadh
- which documents and attestations required
- the visa issued stands valid for how long (3months/ 6 months)

Your early reply is highly appreciated.

Hi Jazakallh,

the visa related threads are applicable to all the KSA not just applicable to cities. hence we should keep them at country level.

The MOFA has stopped giving visit visas for last six months.

Keep on asking visa agents or your comapny HR people. you should then apply and would get the visa in a weeks time.

generally no documents are required. but better you keep your wife's medical report of pregnancy so that they give you the visa for 3 months. otherwise they may give only for one month.

I need visa for my parents, any one who apply it from Istakdam office in Azizyah Jeddah and get it.

Last year I apply and get visa for my mother but father was reject saying that you can bring him on Umra visa.
