Saudi Arabia's three carriers, STC, Mobily, and Zain, have SIM counters at KFIA. Prepaid SIM cards with data bundles are widely available. Carry your passport and visa documents, as identity verification is mandatory at the point of purchase. A local SIM provides better value than roaming for stays of more than a few days.

Every guest travelling to Dammam must hold a valid passport with at least 6 months' validity beyond the intended return date. Domestic Indian IDs are not accepted at Saudi immigration under any circumstances.

Indian nationals require a Saudi Arabia visa before travel: tourist e-visas are available through visitsaudi.com, while work and residency visas are arranged through the sponsoring employer or Saudi authority.
