Post new topic

I have recently (12/07/16) submitted visit visa application at MOFA Al Khobar and got a message since last week that the application is received (تم استلام الطلب). How long usually will this take for visa approval. Please can someone share their experience.

Thank you,

Can visit visa for inlaws be approved if wife is on visit visa? Any guidelines will be helpful

Alhamudlillah. I would like to inform that i have at last got a visit visa for my mother in law today.

It took me only 3-4 hours to get the visa.

1. The application form and other documents (including reason for visit/medical report etc)  was submitted to Istikdam today morning. They then issued me a paper (Thasreer Ziyarah).
2. I then submitted this paper alongwith online visit application form (without COC attestation) to MOFA office. They then gave me the application number and asked me to check the status in MOFA online.
3. After 10 minutes, i checked the status of the application and have seen that the visa is approved!

This is the procedure to apply for family visit visa during hajj season. But you need to have a valid proof stating the reason for visit. In my case, my wife is pregnant, could not travel back to native due to medical reasons and need her mother with her.
