Saudi Arabia lifts ban on travel using national ID cards for UAE and GCC citizens – The National
GCC citizens travelling to Saudi Arabia can once again do so using only their national ID cards.
The kingdom has lifted a suspension on using the cards for travel that was put in place at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The General Directorate of Passports (Jawazat) in Saudi Arabia said on Thursday that the document is now accepted for travel to and from Saudi Arabia for all GCC citizens.
