Passengers who will transit through Saudi Arabia for less than 12 hours do not need to be vaccinated. However, the vaccination certificate must have an official stamp from a government or private hospital.

PIA has urged all passengers traveling to Saudi Arabia to bring their vaccination certificates with them before arriving at the airport.

“Travel to Saudi Arabia will not be allowed without a polio vaccination certificate. To avoid problems, passengers should follow these guidelines, which apply to all airports and airlines,” the spokesperson said.

The General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) of Saudi Arabia has already issued a circular. It instructs all airlines to ensure that passengers arriving in Saudi Arabia from countries where polio is present have received the required vaccination.
