Saudi transit visa

Saudi transit visa - Young ethnic man in earbuds listening to music while waiting for transport at contemporary subway station

I’m travelling on KL flight 0421 from Amsterdam to Muscat. This flight stops in Dammam en route for 45 mins ... I do not believe you get off the plane.

I am presuming I won’t need a Saudi transit visa for this but can somebody please confirm?



Best Answer

You do not require a Saudi transit visa for this itinerary even if you have to change planes.

TWOV (Transit Without Visa):

Passengers transiting through Dammam (DMM), Jeddah (JED) or Riyadh (RUH) with a confirmed onward ticket for a flight to a third country within 12 hours. They must stay in the international transit area of the airport and have documents required for the next destination. Only one transit stop-over in Saudi Arabia is permitted.
