Eligibility for Refunds

If you wish to request a refund, please carefully review the following conditions:

1. Government/visa application fees and service or processing charges are generally non-refundable once the application has been processed or submitted to the relevant Saudi authorities.

2. Visa approval, rejection, processing time, cancellation, and issuance are subject to the sole discretion of the relevant Saudi government authorities, immigration authorities, embassy, consulate, or other authorized authorities. Saudi E Visa Online does not have control over these decisions.

3. In the event that a Saudi visa application is rejected, refused, delayed, cancelled, or otherwise not approved by the relevant authorities, the applicant shall not automatically become eligible for a refund of government fees, service fees, processing fees, transaction charges, or other charges already incurred.

4. Issuance of a Saudi visa does not guarantee admission into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Final entry into Saudi Arabia remains subject to the decision of the relevant immigration or border authorities at the point of entry. Saudi E Visa Online shall not be responsible for any denial of entry after a visa has been issued.

5. If you cancel your application before processing or submission has commenced, a refund may be considered, subject to applicable administrative, payment gateway, transaction, and other charges.

6. If your passport, documents, application information, or supporting documents have already been reviewed, processed, prepared, or submitted to the relevant Saudi authorities or authorized processing channel, the payment may become non-refundable.

7. Once an application has been submitted to the Saudi government system, embassy, consulate, immigration authority, or other authorized channel, no refund shall be provided for the government fees and processing/service charges already incurred.

8. A delay in processing shall not constitute valid grounds for a refund. Processing times displayed on our website are estimates and may vary depending on the Saudi authorities and other factors outside our control.

9. Saudi authorities may request additional documents, information, clarification, or verification at any stage of the application process.

10. If the applicant fails to provide requested documents or information within the required timeframe and this results in a delay, rejection, cancellation, or inability to complete the application, the applicant shall not be eligible for a refund.

11. If an applicant has submitted or obtained another Saudi visa application through another travel agency, visa service provider, sponsor, employer, government platform, or other channel, Saudi E Visa Online shall not be responsible for any resulting rejection, duplication, cancellation, or delay, and the customer may not be eligible for a refund.

12. Prices displayed on our website are subject to change without prior notice due to changes in government fees, exchange rates, service charges, or other applicable costs.

13. Service fees, processing fees, administrative fees, express processing fees, payment gateway charges, bank charges, transaction charges, foreign exchange charges, and other applicable fees are non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise.

14. Any penalties, fines, additional government charges, immigration charges, or other costs imposed on the applicant by Saudi authorities shall be borne entirely by the applicant.

16. Saudi E Visa Online's role is limited to assisting with the visa application process, reviewing or collecting required documentation, submitting the application through the applicable authorized channel where available, and communicating application updates to the applicant.

17. Saudi E Visa Online does not guarantee the approval, issuance, processing time, validity, or entry permission associated with any Saudi visa application.

18. If the applicant's travel date passes because the applicant failed to provide required documents, information, or payment within the requested timeframe, Saudi E Visa Online shall not be responsible for the resulting loss and the applicant shall not be entitled to a refund on that basis.

Visa Cancellation Fee

If a customer voluntarily requests cancellation of a Saudi visa application after processing or submission has commenced, cancellation may be subject to applicable government charges, administrative charges, processing fees, and service charges.

Where a visa has already been issued, any cancellation of the visa may be subject to the rules and charges imposed by the relevant Saudi authorities. Saudi E Visa Online may also charge an applicable service or administrative fee for assisting with the cancellation request.

Government fees and service charges already incurred are non-refundable unless otherwise expressly confirmed by Saudi E Visa Online in writing.

The refund request should include the applicant's name, application/reference number, payment details, and reason for requesting the refund.

Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

Before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card issuer, customers are requested to contact Saudi E Visa Online and provide an opportunity to review the matter.

A chargeback does not automatically establish eligibility for a refund.

Where a customer initiates a chargeback for services that have already been provided, processed, or submitted, Saudi E Visa Online reserves the right to provide the relevant transaction and application records to the payment processor, bank, or financial institution handling the dispute.

Refund Options

If payment was made through an online payment platform, an eligible refund may be processed back to the same account or payment method used for the original transaction.

Where applicable, Saudi E Visa Online may offer a voucher or credit note for future services instead of a monetary refund.
