May 12, Fineko/abc.az. On May 11, 2026, the agreement on the mutual abolition of visas between Russia and Saudi Arabia entered into force.

ABC.AZ informs that now citizens of the two countries can stay in each other's territory without a visa for up to 90 days during a calendar year, including entry, exit and transit. At the same time, the visa-free regime does not apply to work, study and long-term residence - a visa is still required for these purposes.
