Saudi Arabia has multiple visa platforms, each serving a different audience. Use the table below to find the right one for your situation.

Your Situation	Portal	What You Need

How to Check Saudi Tourist eVisa Status on Visit Saudi

If you applied for a Saudi tourist eVisa through the Visit Saudi portal, this is the fastest way to check your status. The eVisa is a one-year, multiple-entry visa that allows stays of up to 90 days per visit and a maximum total stay of 180 days over the validity period. It’s available to citizens of 66 eligible countries.

To check your eVisa status:

Go to the Visit Saudi verification page.
Enter your Order ID (sent to your email when you applied).
Enter your passport number.
Click Submit to view your visa status.

You’ll also receive email notifications when your visa status changes. If emails aren’t coming through, check your spam folder or contact the Visit Saudi Help Center for support via phone, email, or WhatsApp.

Holders of valid and previously used US, UK, or Schengen tourist or business visas are also eligible to apply for the Saudi eVisa through this portal. The visa must have been used at least once to enter the issuing country. Permanent residents of the US, UK, or EU also qualify.

How to Check Saudi Visa Status on MOFA

The MOFA visa portal is the primary government platform for checking work visas, family visit visas, business visas, and Hajj visas linked to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. No login is required.

Steps to Check on MOFA

Open the MOFA visa portal.
Under Inquiry Type, choose one of the following:
- Visa Application Number
- Visa Number
- Hajj Ministry Reference Number
Enter the corresponding number in the first field.
Enter your passport number and select your nationality.
Complete the CAPTCHA and click Inquire.

The result page will display your visa status: Under Review, Approved, or Rejected. The portal supports 15+ languages and also sends SMS notifications when your status changes.

How to Check Visa Status on KSA Visa Portal

The KSA Visa portal is Saudi Arabia’s newer unified visa platform. It covers applications submitted directly on the portal and supports tracking for visitors, citizens, residents, and businesses.

Steps to Check on KSA Visa

Visit the KSA Visa website.
Click Track Application at the top.
Enter your Application/Visa Number.
Enter your ID Number (passport number, Saudi National ID, Iqama ID, or commercial registration number).
Complete the CAPTCHA and click Track My Application.

Allow at least 72 hours after submitting your application before checking for status updates on this portal.

How to Check Iqama and Visa Validity on Absher and Muqeem

If you’re a resident of Saudi Arabia and need to check your iqama status, exit/re-entry visa, or manage dependent visas, two platforms serve this purpose: Absher and Muqeem. Both require login.

Checking on Absher

Absher is the Saudi government’s main e-services platform for individuals. It offers over 330 services, including visa and iqama management.

Go to absher.sa or open the Absher app (available on iOS and Android).
Select Absher Individuals and log in with your iqama number and password.
Complete OTP verification (sent to your registered Saudi mobile number).
Navigate to My Services then Passport/Visa Services.
Select Exit Re-Entry Visa Status to view your active visa details, including issue date, expiry date, and entry type.

Checking Visa Validity on Muqeem

Muqeem’s Visa Validity portal is designed for residents and employers to verify visa validity using an iqama or visa number.

Visit vv.muqeem.sa.
Enter your Iqama number or Visa number.
Provide one matching identifier: passport number, full name, date of birth, or visa issue date.
Click Check to view your visa status, type, duration, issuance date, and whether you’re currently inside or outside Saudi Arabia.

How to Check Hajj and Umrah Visa Status on Nusuk

If you’re travelling to Jeddah or Madinah for Hajj or Umrah, the Nusuk platform is the official portal managed by the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah.

Nusuk handles the complete pilgrimage journey: visa issuance, permit booking, accommodation, transportation, and meal services. Your Nusuk account connects directly to Saudi immigration, so your visa status updates automatically as your application progresses.

For Hajj, visit hajj.nusuk.sa.
For Umrah, visit umrah.nusuk.sa.

Log in with your Nusuk account to view your application and visa status. The Nusuk app is also available on mobile for real-time updates.

Compare flights to Jeddah or flights to Madinah on Wego to find the best fares for your pilgrimage. You can also browse hotels for accommodation near the holy sites.

Troubleshooting: What to Do If Your Status Doesn’t Show

Getting a “no record found” error is common and usually fixable. Here’s what to check:

Match the exact ID type used in your original application. If you applied with your passport number, don’t enter your Iqama number instead. MOFA and KSA Visa are strict about this.
Double-check your numbers. Even one wrong digit will return no results. Copy-paste from your confirmation email if possible.
Try switching the language. Toggle between Arabic and English on the portal. Some fields load differently depending on the language setting.
Clear your browser cache or switch to incognito/private mode. Old cached sessions can interfere with portal forms.
Wait before checking. New applications may take 24 to 72 hours to appear in the system, especially on KSA Visa.
Check during off-peak hours. Government portals can be slow during high-traffic periods, particularly around Hajj and Umrah seasons.

Important: Only use official government portals listed in this article to check your visa status. Never enter your passport or ID details on third-party websites claiming to offer visa status checks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which portal should I use if I don’t know where my visa was submitted?

Start with the KSA Visa portal, which covers applications across multiple visa types. If that doesn’t return results, try the MOFA portal with your passport number and visa application number.

Can I check my Saudi visa status without an application number?

Yes. On the MOFA portal, you can search using your visa number instead of the application number. On Muqeem, you can check using your Iqama number paired with a secondary identifier like your date of birth or passport number.

What happened to the Enjaz visa platform?

Enjaz (enjazit.com.sa) has been shut down. All its services, including work and business visa processing, have been migrated to the MOFA visa portal. The old Enjaz domain now redirects to MOFA.

How long does Saudi visa processing usually take?

Processing times vary by visa type. Tourist eVisas through Visit Saudi are typically processed within minutes to a few hours. Work and family visit visas through MOFA can take several days to weeks depending on the workload. Check the relevant portal for real-time status updates.

Do I need a Saudi phone number to check my visa status?

Only if you’re using Absher, which requires OTP verification to a registered Saudi mobile number. The MOFA, KSA Visa, and Visit Saudi portals don’t require a Saudi phone number.
