Passport Renewal Service: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how Saudi citizens can renew their passports online and have them delivered directly to their home.

This service allows you to renew your passport through a digital process so you can receive your new document without having to visit a physical office.

Who it's for

This service is specifically for Saudi citizens who need to update their travel documents. It is designed to help citizens manage their official documentation digitally to ensure they can access other national services without needing to visit government offices in person.

What you get

When you use this service, you receive a renewed passport. A key benefit of this digital system is that the new passport is sent directly to you via home delivery, saving you a trip to a government building to collect it.

What it costs you

There is a renewal fee required to process your new passport. This fee is not paid directly to the issuing body in person; instead, you must pay the required amount through your bank portal to complete the transaction.

The catch to know

The most common issue people face with this digital service is the photo requirement. You must ensure that your digital photo meets the strict digital guidelines set by the authorities. If the photo does not meet these specific technical standards, you may face delays or issues with your renewal.

How to apply

  1. Access the official government digital portal.
  2. Log in to your account to start the renewal process.
  3. Upload a digital photo that follows the strict guidelines.
  4. Complete the payment of the renewal fee through your bank portal.
  5. Await the delivery of your new passport to your home address.
