Yes. Even my wife arrived here last July 5. She had her yellow fever vaccine. I called directly VFS and confirmed to me to follow everything required in the website.
It can be checked on their website.

However, as per my wife. VFS did not ask her the vaccie certificate and told her to show it to airport. But in the airport no one checked.
For those inquiring, I would suggest to call directly the VFS tasheel. But for me personally, I would recommend to just follow the requirements stated in the website to avoid delays.
Thanks for the info but this is the same reason why there is no need for yellow fever vaccination as per my personal assessment. Information appreciated though.

You can check other VFS centers in countries you mentioned if they allowed because it has an option of choosing your origin and entry point in the appointment for visa stamping.
Since it Is a visa issue, may I make an inquiry
I wonder what SA Embassy should I take the working visa since my country of resident permit is different from my country of passport ? Thank you in advance

It is located beside your dependent's name for resident visa and the document # for visit visa.
Wow, thank you for the information re vaccine. We got an appointment with VFS on 19 Oct for resident visa.
Hello, yes they need to have BC of your kids as well as your Marriage Certificate attested in KSA EMBASSY in Manila.
They also need to do Medical Tests. Then after that is the appointment booking at VFS TASHEEL.
All the best.

Hi! Good day! I We have approved visa document from Saudi Arabia, next step is to go to vfs tasheel to submit all the requirements. Our concern as of now is that we we’rent able to get appointment in DFA for the authentication of our marriage cert as it is already fully booked in the system. We need to process this urgently. Any help pls for us to manage authentication of our marriage cert this month. Thank you.
Try to contact Docrouter account in Facebook. She's the one helping us with our papers.
hi, sent you a private message regarding DFA apostille.
Hello! May I know how much it will cost for the visa stamping?
Maybe this coming week my husband will secure an appointment in your office after the release of DFA apostille/authentication of marriage certificate.
Thank you.
Hi! Katvill, thank you.
May I know how much the cost of visa stamping and all in VFS Tasheel?
Thank you.
Regarding the family visit visa referral slip, I was given only the visa document from MOFA. Is the visit permit and invitation means only the VISA DOCUMENT? Because that is the only form given to me from the MOFA, saying that just present this form to the VFS Tasheel.
Does my husband(who will process) the visa needs to be swab 72 hours prior to the appointment in VFS Tasheel?
Thank you.
Good day guys,
just clarification for the Medical insurance. is it required for Family visit Multiple Entry visa? and need to avail in VFS Tasheel? upon booking they quoted only less than 9,000 PHP for Visa, lounge service, enjaz it, etc.. and for the medical insurance they will ask you to pay additional 18,500 PHP to proceed your application. which i am not aware. my mother is Senior Citizen btw.

Just processed Family Visit Visa for my 19 year old son last Nov 4 and we only paid 3000+ pesos as medical insurance in VFS Tasheel. He got his visa on Nov 8 but delivered at home today, Nov 10.
Thats what i also expect. less than 5,000 for other fee like Insurance. but i was surprise for that additional 18,500 amount alone for insurance VFS tasheel staff ask for. even my colleagues that they bring their relatives here was surprise. tomorrow they will comeback and ask for cost breakdown and what type of insurance is this, hoping they will provide.

Ah, you mean the application is not submitted yet?! My son was told by the guards if he has the money around 13k for the insurance but I told him not to listen to them but only to the people inside. That 18k insurance is too much even if the age is a factor.

My Mother came back to VFS Today. unfortunately the price went up to 35k. she tried to ask for the breakdown. staff said they cant provide due to it is keep on changing. maybe this time is not our luck we have to back out.
Pop up Notification in their Official website.
All Applicants traveling to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are required to obtain a Council of Cooperative Health Insurance (CCHI) approved Medical Insurance Certificate from the VFS TasHeel Visa Application Centre. The cost of the insurance is generated upon receiving the application and has to be paid at the time of the appointment.

Oh my God, too way high! It might be due to the current situation (pandemic). Praying that you can bring your mother soon.

What do you mean by manual processing? Quite confusing.
We are applying through Absher but there's a pop-up message from Absher that we need to visit istiqdam for manual processing.
My husband is working in Saudia airlines, Saei division. The problem is until now they didn't process the chamber which is the only document needed to proceed in processing to istiqdam. That's why I'm asking if a referral letter from his company is needed or a salary statement is needed to submit in istiqdam? Please help me. Thank you so much

The one who is applying for dependent visa should visit Istiqdam personally after all required documents are complete and with appointment booked online. You cannot have the visa without visiting the office. The company's HR will only check/verify the documents for submission as the form needs signature/stamp of the official representative.

This I don't have personal knowledge as I am working in government institution so we are exempted from Chamber of Commerce stamp. But as far as I know, he can bring his salary certificate directly to the Chamber of Commerce and pay minimal amount for stamping.
Good day!
Has anyone of you here applied for family visit visa at VFS Manila this month of November and experience a delay in the processing time of application. Based on our previous applications usually it takes 2-3 days only to receive the visa stamped passport but unfortunately for my mom in law who applied last Nov. 22, 2021 up until now upon tracking the status, it just shows application has been forwarded to KSA Embassy. Does it suggest any problem on the application. Thank you
