Saudi Visas from June 2015
 

Saudi Tourist Visa: Saudi Arabia will offer Tourist Visa from June 2015

Interesting but I reckon there is a good chance this will not happen.
Would be very good if it all comes to fruition though, could be extremely useful once Syria/Iraq calms down.

Oh...

Scratch that.

Maybe not, but it would be nice if they allow it. Then one can go from Europe to Africa and through Saudi and back to Europe avoiding Egyptian Ridiculous carnet charge.

My Boss here in Oman says Saudi transit visas are possible if you have a Visa for a boarding country in your passport. There is agencies in Muscat that will get you one apparently... Hit me if I have to research more... nopain@nobrain.ch (not on here every day)

Well, that's a bummer.
