Saudi Family Visa Application Process from Los Angeles
- Get your MOFA authorisation. Your Saudi sponsor, a Saudi citizen or a foreign resident with a valid Iqama, obtains the family visit authorisation.
- Send us your documents. Relationship documents, such as marriage or birth certificates, are attested by the US Department of State and legalised by the Saudi Embassy. We assist with this.
- We submit through the Saudi Embassy in Washington, D.C. Processing typically takes 5 to 10 business days, depending on document readiness and embassy workload.
- Travel to Saudi Arabia. A family visit visa allows stays of up to 90 days, while a family residence visa allows dependents to live long-term under the sponsor’s Iqama.
