Saudi Arabia Visa for New Zealand Citizens 🇸🇦🇳🇿

New Zealand passport holders must get a visa before visiting Saudi Arabia, and the most common and easiest way is through the Saudi eVisa (electronic visa) applied online in advance. Citizens of New Zealand can submit their eVisa application online without needing to visit a Saudi embassy; once approved, the eVisa is emailed to you. The eVisa is typically valid for about 1 year, allows multiple entries, and lets you stay in Saudi Arabia for up to 90 days per visit. Applicants need a valid New Zealand passport (with at least six months’ validity), a recent passport-style photo, a valid email for communication, and payment of the visa fee during the online application. After approval, you present the eVisa with your passport when entering Saudi Arabia at airports, land borders, or seaports.

For other purposes like work, family visits, or longer stays, different visa categories and additional documentation through the Saudi Embassy or consulate are required.
