Enjazit Visa: KSA Visa Services Platform

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has been trying to encourage foreigners to come to the country for reasons other than a pilgrimage. Under the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia aims to reduce its dependence on oil. The plan assumes diversification of the country’s economy by expanding tourism.

Most visitors arriving in Saudi Arabia need a valid visa unless they are nationals of one of the visa-exempt countries. In 2019, the KSA launched the online visa system, allowing travelers from 51 countries to apply for a Saudi visa online.

Enjazit registration was a crucial part of most Saudi visa applications. It was essential for informing the designated processing consulate of incoming applications and covering visa services.

What is the Enjazit visa application?

The Enjazit platform used to be Saudi Arabia’s visa services platform through which eligible applicants could apply for a visa for the KSA, except for tourist visas. Currently, visa services are processed through the updated MOFA visa platform.

Enjaz was an electronic application for the Saudi visa that was next directly sent to the KSA embassy, listed in the invitation letter. The printed Enjaz receipt had to be included with all documentation submitted at the KSA consulate. Applicants could complete the Enjaz application in two ways: either submit the application online or apply through the KSA embassy’s authorized company, which cooperates with the embassy. What is essential is that the Enjazit visa application didn’t cover the application for a tourist visa. The Saudi government introduced a separate eVisa platform dedicated to tourist visas.

Please note that all Enjazit services are now directed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. In practice, it means that applicants must now visit the MOFA website to complete the Saudi visa application.

Additionally, an applicant may need to meet any additional requirement specified by the applicable Saudi Arabia embassy.
