visit visa application
Hi I have some questions for the visit visa.
1. Does my wife have to have a plane ticket having 2 way flights (with date of return to orig country) or she can come on just one way plane ticket?
2. After making the online application here, what are the next thing to do?
3. Lastly, if I want to extend her visit visa, do I have to come back to my company's main address? Ex. my company's H.O. is in Dammam, and I am working on a project in Jeddah, is it ok to process it thru Jawazat jeddah or I have to go back in Dammam?
Thank you so much for your help guys.
it is up to you u can buy a one way ticket or two way.
Cheak if your visa is accepted then just tell your wife to print it and get it stamped by the embassy
For extention you have to pay i guess 100 riyals for every month u extend
and having a plane ticket is not nessesary for getting the visa stamped u can buy it afterwards
If she is coming on a visit visa then she must carry a two way ticket. If she is coming on a family visa then one way is ok. To extend the visit visa it will cost 100 SAR for a month, but what if they do not extend the visit visa on time and it gets expired? then you need to find some agents who can do that for you and they would charge 600-1500 a month. Sometimes rules here are tricky and brings lot of trouble for people. SO make sure you wont end up paying huge for every extension. As per the rules you can choose any jawazat office but not sure what hey gonna say.
guys, do you an answer on this:
2. After making the online application here, sServices, what are the next thing to do?
Take print and after that take stamp and signature of your sponsor and go to chamber of commerce and take stamp there then only your application activate, after coc keep checking online status with your application and iqama number
hi msa27,
submitted it on march 3 2014.
today status is saying this one: 堛媢堛堸堭 塈堬塈堭堜 媢 堛堶 塈媟堥
which says, "Apologize for the ministry to achieve demand"
can you tell me what shall i do next? is it a waiting mode for me now or there is a reason to panic?
that means your application rejected so now you can re apply again

hi msa27,
Can you tell me why it is rejected? Maybe because I have applied for 2 visit visas, one is 30 and 60.
please tell me what is the best thing to do?
Sometimes the reasons might make you laugh, so when they reject keep applying. One of my friend applied for 6 times and got rejected, the 7th time his family visit visa was accepted. Keep applying....

it is not related to salary certificate or other matters right? i have followed all the things that I have read. but maybe I need to do it again. Can someone show me what an approved status in visit visa application looks like?
Hi, I created a post not too long ago. For ease, I'll paste it here:
Due to the lack of information available, I decided to post a summary of the different stages of my family visit application. The translation was done from Google translate.
1. Once the application is electronically submitted online on the MOFA website.
The following message appears alongside a summary of your application.
堭堿 媟堥塈媢堜 塈媟堥 堛媯堹 塈堛堭塈 塈媞堭堜 塈堛堿塈堭堜 塈 堿堜 塈媢
Please print the application and electronically ratification of the Chamber of Commerce or the employer
2. Paid the employer 25 SAR and a copy of the application, then they submitted the application to the Chamber of Commerce. The following message appears alongside a summary of your application:
(堛 塈堛媯堹 媢 塈媟堥: ( 688888 ) 堥堛塈堭堮 2013/12/29 (媞堭堜 塈堭塈媔)
The ratification of the request: (688888) on 29/12/2013 (Riyadh Chamber)
3. Once the MOFA issue the visa, the following message appears, with a shortened summary of your application:
堭堿塈堙 媟堥塈媢堜 塈堻堛堹 堭塈堿媢堜 堳堜 塈堜 堨媯堹塈堭 堛堧奡堭堜 塈堹堮
Please print the document and audit representation Kingdom to issue visa
****
Next step, print the visa document, and take it to the embassy in the country of your residence. There, the visa will be issued in your passport.
Summary:
Application submitted online (Saturday 28th December 2013)
Next day employer submits to Chamber of Commerce (Sunday 29th December 2013).
MOFA issued visa within 6 days (Saturday 4th January)
Hope this helps.







There are many factors. The standing of your company in government records, your profession on Iqama, company color etc.
But on salary certificate: No --- You never have to show them that.
The bad thing: They don't tell you the reason.

It i not related to salary certificate, its quite weird the way these people work for visa, i heard some got visa on first shot and some applied for more than 10 times. So it all depends on luck, the only thing you need see weather your work status allows you to apply visit visa or family visa or not. thats it, rest try your luck, but only the matter of time, for sure you will get the visa soon. Good Luck.
this is my 3rd try.
The ratification of the request: (7586919) on 26/03/2014 ( East Room )
With red statement that says,
塈 堹塈媢 堭塈堿媢堜 堬塈堭堜 塈堮塈堭堿堜 堧 堭媢塈 堥塈堻堥堜 媟堥塈堛 塈堬塈堭堜 塈媢塈埵堜 塈媯堹 媢塈 堞塈 塈媞堭堜 塈堛堿塈堭堜 媢 堛塈堥媢堜堛堿堜 塈媟堥 媢 塈媢
I really hope that it will be approved this time. It is only 30days! Hoping and praying
Good Luck and hope this time it can be approved.
hey guys, can you please tell me what this status means?
堛 塈堻堛塈 塈媟堥
google translate says,
"The receipt of the request"
I don't know what that means. But the last application was still rejected!
Thank you







That means: we have received your application.
This is the very initial stage of application.

Thank you TheLegendLeads! I wonder why it doesn't contain ratification status just like the first one. I hope it will turn out ok this time! in gods grace.
guys, i have a great news. my visit visa application was approved just today! 90days for my wife's visit.
it took me 5 tries. what we did on the last one was together with the online application and my iqama id, they have submitted it to MOFA personally. my friends wife who is a nurse in a government hospital, also applied for her mother's visit. that application only took 1 try. maybe because she was working for the government. but for private it is entirely different and much strict.
anyways, thanks for all of you guys. i really appreciate your help! god bless you all

congrats!
Good discussions...
And regarding the two way ticket in case of visit visa, Travel agencies are using a trick; they will submit the two way ticket and they refund the return ticket after stamping the visa. And u can take the ticket only when they go back from KSA.

Hi ! Please could you kindly inform what is the validity period to stamp a family visit visa after issue from M.O.F.A. Is it 3 months or 1 month ? Best regards & Thanks.
My Question Is
Don't We Have to Wait Until Our Application Being Accepted,
then we go to chamber of commerce
Why to Pay 30 Riyal Every time While we applied For Visa and its not accepted
Suggestion Please
All family visit visa must be stamped within 3 months..
and must be traveled within one month after stamping.

yes i think for every process or application we have to pay again that amount. since it is considered a new application
thank you so much my friend..
