Hi, Am just wondering if I need to get a visa for Saudi Arabia before my cruise in Nov on MSC Opera. The govt supposedly has an eMaritime visa for cruise ship pax, should cost about $27 US, but when you go to apply online for an evisa, They only offer a regular visa-which costs over 250.00 but can be used as an eMaritime visa. I dont want to pay this money for a 1 day stop in Jeddah. Any suggestions??
