Planning Trip to SAUDI ARABIA?

When traveling to Saudi Arabia, there are several things you should keep in mind to ensure a smooth and enjoyable trip. Here are a few tips that might help:
01

Visa & ENTRY

Australian passport holders can apply for a tourist eVisa to Saudi Arabia, allowing stays of up to 90 days within a one-year period. The eVisa is valid for multiple entries. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended departure date. Applications can be submitted through the official Saudi eVisa portal.
02

Currency Exchange

The official currency in Saudi Arabia is the Saudi Riyal (SAR). As of May 2025, 1 Australian Dollar (AUD) is approximately equal to 2.42 Saudi Riyals. It's advisable to exchange some currency before your trip. Use RedRate, which has locations across Australia, to get the best AUD→SAR exchange rates before you leave.
03

Tipping

Tipping is customary in Saudi Arabia but not mandatory. In restaurants, a tip of 10–15% is appreciated if service charges are not included. For taxi drivers, rounding up the fare is common. It's advisable to tip in local currency (SAR) rather than coins, as coins are often considered less appropriate.
04

TRANSPORT

Saudi Arabia offers various public transportation options, including buses, metro systems, and trains. The Saudi Public Transport Company (SAPTCO) operates intercity bus routes and urban bus routes in select cities. Additionally, the Riyadh Metro provides convenient urban travel within the capital.
05

STAY CONNECTED

To stay connected during your trip, consider purchasing a local SIM card or an eSIM. Providers like STC, Mobily, and Zain offer prepaid plans with data, calls, and texts. These can be purchased at the airport, retail stores, or ordered online before your arrival.

About the
SAUDI RIYAL

The official currency of Saudi Arabia is the Saudi riyal (SAR), abbreviated as SR. It is issued by the Saudi Central Bank and is subdivided into 100 halalas. The riyal has been in circulation since 1925 and was pegged to the U.S. dollar at a rate of 1 USD = 3.75 SAR in 1986, a rate that remains in effect today . Banknotes are issued in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, and 500 riyals, featuring portraits of the Saudi royal family and national landmarks. Coins are available in 5, 10, 25, 50 halalas, and 1 riyal denominations. The riyal's stability is closely tied to Saudi Arabia's oil exports, making it a key currency in the Middle East.
