The first comment from the Kingdom’s embassy in Abuja regarding preventing travelers from Nigeria from entering Saudi Arabia

Al-Marsad newspaper: The Kingdom’s embassy in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, revealed the reason for preventing Nigerian travelers from entering the Kingdom.

The embassy explained that the reason for deporting Nigerian citizens at the point of entry into the Kingdom is that they do not meet the entry conditions and requirements in accordance with the rules and regulations in force in the Kingdom.

It reported that the passengers who were prevented from entering Saudi Arabia provided incorrect information while submitting applications for a “visa category,” which did not match their actual condition.

The embassy stressed the importance of following the procedures and laws established by the Kingdom for all visitors, and the necessity of reviewing all required documents before departing from their countries to the Kingdom to ensure that they comply with the specified conditions.
