Visa rules can change, so Canadians should confirm the current Saudi entry option before paying for travel. Do not rely on an old social post or a friend's past trip.
What should you confirm before booking?
· Which Saudi visa type fits your trip.
· How long your passport must remain valid.
· Whether health or vaccination rules apply.
· Whether any permit or app step is needed for part of your visit.
· Whether your travel provider is including visa support.
Why does this matter?
· A valid flight and hotel booking do not replace entry permission.
· Rules can change between the day you book and the day you travel.
· Non-Canadian passport holders may have different requirements.
What does the current November package say?
· Al-Ibrahim's live November 2026 package lists a Saudi tourist visa as included for Canadian travellers.
· It also states that non-Canadian passport holders may need separate Umrah visa assistance at extra cost.
