Although you can travel to the country without a visa, you will need a visa if you are staying in the country for a long period of time, for example, to study, work or do business, the ministry’s tweet said.
While visa-free travel to Kyrgyzstan was made available today, Maldives was included in the list of countries that can travel to Saudi visa-free three weeks ago.
