Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the Kingdom will welcome FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 fans who hold the “Hayya” card to spend up to 60 days in the country.

On its official Twitter account, the ministry stated that it will accept the application for an entry visa into the Kingdom, provided that the “Hayya” card holders are permitted to enter the Kingdom 10 days before the start of the World Cup after obtaining an electronic visa through the Unified National Platform for Visas. The ministry will announce later how to submit the visa application and the mechanism for obtaining the visa.

In addition, the visa holders will be entitled to enter and leave the Kingdom several times during the validity period of the visa. However, it is not required to have pre-entry to Qatar before arrival in the Kingdom. Medical insurance is required before coming over to Saudi Arabia.

The “Hayya” card is a digital card that serves as an all-around permit for attendees of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. After purchasing World Cup tickets, fans should apply for the card, which is mandatory to attend matches. It provides a number of benefits, including free public transport for ticket holders on match days.
