Saudi nationals will no longer need a visa when travelling to Singapore, according to authorities.

Citizens will be exempt from visa requirements starting on June 1, 2023 said the Singapore Immigration and Checkpoints Authority.

The Kingdom’s citizens, unless they hold diplomatic passports, will need to apply for a visa if travelling before June 1, the ICA clarified. No refunds will be offered on existing applications.
