Canada grants easy visa to Saudi citizens. Canadian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia David Chatterson, has announced that multi-entry visas are being made available to Saudi nationals to visit the country for work or study an unlimited number of times for up to five years, rather than the 18 months that was previously allowed. As one of Canada’s significant trading partners, Saudi Arabia sends more than 8000 students to study in Canada with 2000 more expected to attend Canadian universities and colleges this year. Ambassador Chatterson stated, “The new visa regulations will greatly facilitate movement between our countries, promote better understanding and bolster our strong relationship. It will be easier for Saudis studying in Canada to travel back and forth and for Saudi business people to work with their Canadian partners.” What wonderful news! Many thanks, Ambassador Chatterson and Canada for your additional welcome extended to the Saudi people. May your nations blossom in shared fulfillment and friendship.
