Riyadh: Holders of valid Schengen, UK and US visas of any nationality are allowed into Saudi Arabia without pre-entry visas.
However, visitors wishing to benefit from relaxed visa measures are required to travel on Saudi airlines only.
The General Authority for Civil Aviation (GACA) issued a circular restricting the new measure to people travelling on Saudi Arabian Airlines, Flynass, Flyadeal and SaudiGulf Airlines.
Under the GACA circular, no other Arab or foreign airline is authorised to transport these visitors, who are allowed to enter Saudi Arabia through Jeddah, Dammam and Riyadh international airports only, Sabq reported.
