The Ministry said that it is advantageous to submit requests for the issuance of electronic visas via the Nusuk platform (www.nusuk.sa), provided that the date of their arrival begins from Muharram 1 1445 AH, because the Nusuk platform stands apart by simplifying the processes for the arrival of all Muslims from all over the world.
