Saudi Arabia Announces First Tourist Visa

Riyadh, Ta. September 28, 2019, Saturday

The Saudi Arabian government has made a historic announcement to attract tourists from around the world on World Tourist Day. Now Saudi Arabia will give tourist visas to tourists. Until now, Saudi Arabia's government did not approve tourist visas.

Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Salman has suggested and implemented many improvements under a project called Vision-2030. A new tourist visa initiative is also under this mission.

As part of World Tourist Day celebrations, the Saudi government announced in a historic announcement that Saudi Arabia is now opening its doors to travel enthusiasts around the world. Tourists from all over the world will be able to visit Saudi Arabia and see new things. The Saudi tourism minister termed the move a historic one, expressing optimism that Saudi tourism destinations would attract a certain amount of tourists from all over the world.

Saudi Arabia's real economy depends on mineral oil, but now in the next decade and a half, Saudi Arabia's dependence on mineral oil is exploring new possibilities in other sectors. This is an important step towards not being mineral based. It is worth mentioning that up to now, only businessmen or employers in Saudi had received visas. Visiting Muslim communities in Mecca and Madi were getting visas.
