Saudi Arabia Visa Eligibility for Citizens of the Federative Republic of Brazil

The tourism and diplomatic bridges between the Federative Republic of Brazil and Saudi Arabia have grown significantly stronger, resulting in a more accessible entry system for Brazilian travelers. As the Kingdom moves forward with its global hospitality vision, Brazilian passport holders now benefit from streamlined digital procedures that replace much of the traditional bureaucracy. Whether you are departing from the vibrant energy of São Paulo to explore the futuristic landscapes of NEOM or visiting the historic Hijaz region, your journey is supported by a robust electronic authorization framework designed for the modern traveler.

Current Visa Pathways for Brazilian Nationals

In early 2026, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia officially includes the Federative Republic of Brazil among the nations eligible for the electronic visa (e-visa) system. This ensures that most Brazilian citizens can bypass embassy visits and manage their entire application through a secure online environment.

• Direct E-Visa Eligibility: Brazilian nationals are entitled to apply for a digital tourist visa, which is processed and delivered electronically.

• Visa on Arrival: For those who prefer to manage their documentation at the border, Brazilian passport holders also have access to the Visa on Arrival service at major Saudi international airports.

• Permitted Use: These authorizations are valid for leisure tourism, family and relative visits, attending international business events, and performing the Umrah pilgrimage.

Travel Flexibility: Duration and Re-entry Rights

The entry framework for Brazilian citizens is designed to accommodate various travel needs, from short business trips to extensive cultural explorations:

• Annual Validity: Once your e-visa is issued, it remains active for a full period of 12 months, allowing for flexible travel planning throughout the year.

• Multiple-Entry Status: This eligibility allows Brazilian travelers to enter and exit the Kingdom multiple times within the visa's one-year validity.

• Stay Period: Each individual visit permits a stay of up to 90 days, giving you nearly three months to experience the diversity of the Saudi landscape.

• Umrah Access: Brazilian citizens can utilize their tourist e-visa to perform the Umrah pilgrimage at any time of the year, providing an efficient alternative to dedicated religious visas.

Professional Verification and All-Inclusive Pricing

To ensure that every Brazilian applicant meets the current border security standards and that their mandatory health insurance is correctly activated, we provide a specialized review service. This prevents administrative errors and ensures a seamless transition through Saudi immigration.

• Standard Eligibility Path: The total all-inclusive fee for our professional service is 175 dollars. This final price encompasses the official government visa fee, the 2026 mandatory medical insurance policy, and our manual document audit. Most authorizations are finalized within 3 to 5 business days.

• Express Priority Path: For those with urgent departure plans from Brazil, we offer an expedited service for 225 dollars, prioritizing your file for a response within 24 business hours.

Specialized Entry: Careers and Long-Term Residency

It is important for citizens of the Federative Republic of Brazil to note that tourist and electronic visas do not grant the right to engage in paid labor. If your goal is professional relocation or a long-term work contract, a specific Consular Work Visa must be obtained. This process requires a Saudi sponsor and the verification of academic and medical records. We recommend a preliminary check of your credentials to ensure they align with professional standards before you initiate the embassy process.

Essential Requirements for Brazilian Applicants

To confirm your entry eligibility, please ensure you have the following items ready:

1. Passport: A valid Brazilian passport with at least six months of remaining validity.

2. Digital Profile: A clear, recent biometric photograph with a plain background.

3. Communication: A valid email address to receive your official digital authorization.
