  • The report: Completed on the destination's own form, an embassy template, or a covering report we draft, with all signatures and stamps included.

Is there anything else I should know?

  • Requirements and forms are your responsibility. Visa medical requirements change and embassies do not always announce it, so you must check the current requirements directly with the Saudi Arabia embassy or High Commission in London, obtain the correct forms, and satisfy yourself that you have exactly what your application needs. We will help wherever we can, but confirming what Saudi Arabia requires is yours to do.

  • The exact tests and any legalisation depend on your current Saudi consular form and your sponsor's checklist. We do not assume apostille or FCDO certification is required unless your application confirms it.
