RIYADH: Saudi Arabia has announced an expansion of its tourist visa program to include citizens from Kosovo and Guyana, effective immediately. This decision, made by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs, aims to enhance tourism and foster international relations.

The Ministry stated that the inclusion of these two countries in the tourist visa program reflects Saudi Arabia’s commitment to diversifying its tourism sector and welcoming visitors from around the globe. The announcement comes as part of the Kingdom’s broader strategy to boost its economy through tourism, which has been identified as a key sector under the Vision 2030 initiative.

This expansion is expected to open new avenues for cultural exchange and economic collaboration between Saudi Arabia and the newly included nations. By facilitating easier access for tourists, the Kingdom hopes to attract more visitors, thereby contributing to its economic growth and enhancing its global image as a tourist destination.

Looking ahead, the Saudi government plans to continue reviewing and updating its visa policies to further promote tourism. Stakeholders in the travel and hospitality sectors are encouraged to prepare for an influx of tourists from these countries, which may lead to new business opportunities and partnerships.
