Official Statement: Exemption of Escort Fees in Saudi Arabia for Citizens, Students, and more

In the age of technology and social media, news and rumors abound from time to time, and the most recent of these circulating news concerns escort fees in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, the General Authority of Passports comes to put an end to this news and clarify the facts. The General Authority of Passports issued an official statement confirming the exemption of those born in Saudi Arabia from accompanying fees, but this exemption was not limited to those born in Saudi Arabia only, but included several other categories. These categories include students coming to continue their studies in the Kingdom, in addition to military students who are there for training.

Not only that, the authority indicated in its statement that the categories that benefited from this decision also include employees working in embassies, wives of disabled Saudi citizens, and children of Saudi women married to foreigners, in addition to holders of diplomatic passports for those who wish to know more details about fees. Accompanying people or inquiring about their personal status can benefit from the “Absher” digital platform. This platform, which is affiliated with the Saudi Ministry of Interior, allows residents and expatriates to inquire about the fees associated with their residency number.

Transparency and clarity remain a feature of government departments in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. When news circulates, the official response comes to clarify and guide souls. With this new announcement, citizens and residents can feel comfortable and reassured that they will always obtain the correct information from official sources.
