Saudi passport authority eases status correction for Yemeni nationals via digital platforms

The spokesperson for the General Directorate of Passports, Lt. Col. Nasser Al-Otaibi, said that the campaign to correct the status of Yemeni nationals in violation of residency regulations enables beneficiaries to regularize their status according to specific procedures, with the process facilitated through digital platforms.

Speaking in an interview with Al-Ikhbariya Radio, Al-Otaibi explained that this initiative, aimed at correcting the status of Yemenis residing illegally in the Kingdom, is being implemented in accordance with directives from King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.

He added that the initiative is designed to give eligible individuals the opportunity to regularize their status through defined procedures that take into account their varying legal situations. It also allows them to complete the process via digital platforms, where permitted by government agencies, without the need to visit government offices in person, thereby streamlining the process.
