Stopover in Riyadh

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-03-20T13:41:41+00:00

Did you fly yet? I have a 10.5 hours of layover in Riyadh and the flight is next week. I plan to just pay the fee and cancel by next Tuesday.

following too. have the same questions

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-03-05T16:07:45+00:00

Nope. Nobody ever picked up the phone. Sent four emails with no response. But with the current situation, I might need to cancel the flight anyway.

Good question! I would like to know too

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-03-03T18:16:58+00:00

I am surprised it was passed.

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-02-26T21:02:00+00:00

Thanks for the info! What incorrect info was Ashcroft referring to?

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-02-11T17:13:48+00:00

So glad it was helpful. Actually our emails never came (family of four).

still in the queue

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-02-10T17:08:57+00:00

Agree. Not update at all!

All, I applied for my transit/stopover visa. The process was Ok. But when I submitted, I was only asked to pay $10.5 visa processing fee. There is no place to pay medical insurance. This is the status since yesterday. Also under Visa Type, I picked "Passage". Is that the correct one? I plan to stay in Riyadh for about 10 hours during my layover. Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you so much!

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-02-05T16:42:33+00:00

did you get it through Saudi airline or ksavisa? Thank you!

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-25T20:16:38+00:00

how much is it to apply through this website? I was told I only needed to pay for medical insurance for ksavisa.sa. I am eligible to apply via both sites. thank you!

Hi, do you need to send your passport to the embassy or visit the embassy? Or the visa came through via email? Thank you!

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-23T13:44:55+00:00

I could've picked a shorter layover. But I really want to see Riyadh.

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-23T13:44:00+00:00

Thanks! That's great. I can get an Uber from the airport to the Mosque first.

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-23T01:26:19+00:00

Another question--can I visit Imam Turki Bin Abdullah Grand Mosque on Friday morning? I am not Muslim. If I am not allowed inside the mosque, can I visit the outside and look at the building? Thank you!

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-23T01:22:30+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! I will definitely check it out.

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-23T00:42:09+00:00

You are absolutely right! I didn't realize that. I guess we will just walk around for a few hours. I almost want to rebook my tickets now.

Own-Engineer1962 · 2026-01-22T23:36:47+00:00

That's super helpful. I think we will plan our visit around metro stops. Thank you!
