The GCC Grand Tours Visa Has Officially Been Approved—Here's Everything Travelers Need to Know

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) has approved the Unified Tourist Visa, a new initiative that aims to simplify travel within the region. The visa will allow visitors to access Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) through a single digital application. The Unified Tourist Visa is expected to boost tourism and economic growth in the GCC countries. It will provide travelers with a more seamless and convenient experience, as they will no longer need to apply for separate visas for each country. The application process for the Unified Tourist Visa will be entirely digital, making it easier and more efficient for travelers. The visa will be valid for up to 90 days and can be used for multiple entries. This initiative is part of the GCC's efforts to diversify their economies and reduce their reliance on oil and gas. By making it easier for tourists to visit the region, the Unified Tourist Visa is expected to contribute to the growth of various sectors, including hospitality, retail, and entertainment.
