Very helpful. I've been wrestling with this all day. I think there have been some updates BUT they are not good! There's a Beta site but when you try it, there is no option for the e waiver.... only the $147 visa. So I went to the MOFA site like you say. HOWEVER..... a) after several attempts, a little tick box appeared to fill in if you don't have a previous nationality.... so that issue went away! B) I was presented with a long list of insurances that I had to select from.... weird... all at different prices, but no description of the policies! C) when I came to pay, it came up at $187.81. A seemingly random number AND NOT $40! I gave up and will try again tomorrow. But this has been a nightmare.

It’s when you put a date that is after the time you arrive then you might have to do either another visa or just get a visa on arrival when you’re there. Like I said you’ve put a date before so you should be ok as I’m sure putting a day earlier would also cover you if you’re flight was delayed for example and you arrive a day later.

It is enforced if you are travelling from other cities like Medina using the trains.

I can’t say for 100% but I think as long as you just use your British citizenship details then it should be fine. I wouldn’t complicate the situation by telling them that you had all these corrections. All that should matter to them is your current credentials.

Can I skip travel history as it is giving errors

Best not to but if it’s giving you errors then you can skip it and it will still issue you a visa. Of course you do so at your own risk….a very small low risk.

Yes. Apply for the adults first then apply for the kids with the adults visa number as part of the kids application.

As another commenter said “For a child's application you have to enter the parents 'Application ID' - this is found under 'Visa Applications' in your profile section on the KSA Visa site (). Instead I was entering the application reference from my actual EVW visa and that's why it was being rejected.”
