Yes, if you hold a confirmed onward flight to Saudi Arabia leaving within the 48 hours. The transit visa lets you leave the airport, rest in the city and return for your next flight. Your Saudi visa is a separate document and you should carry it as well. Apply with us after booking your flights, using the same passport you will travel on.

Airlines check your routing against entry rules before boarding. If your plans involve leaving the airport in Dubai, or the onward ticket is not clear, the agent may refuse you.
