25/09/2018 Argaam

 

Saudi Arabia has said it will issue electronic visas for the first time to allow visitors access to the debut of the Formula E Middle East racing event in Riyadh.

 

The race is scheduled to take place on December 15, the Ministry of Media said in a statement.

 

“Saudi Arabia will open up its borders to fans of live sport, music and culture for the first time with the launch of a new online visa process dedicated to welcoming international tourists. The new visa process platform known as ‘Sharek’ will be introduced for the inaugural Saudia Ad Diriyah E Prix being staged at a stunning UNESCO heritage site on the outskirts of Riyadh on 15th December 2018,” the Saudi General Sports Authority said.

 

Sharek was launched as part of the country’s Vision 2030, and organizers hope that a large number of international fans would take advantage of the facility to travel to the Kingdom to witness Formula E’s Middle East debut, as well as Gen2 cars for the start of Season V.
