Saudi Visa Medical Requirements for Children Below 12

Saudi visa medical requirements for children below 12 applying for a family residence visa from India, including the polio certificate process.

Medical requirement for children

Children below 12 years usually do not go through the same full WAFID medical examination as adults. Requirements can differ, so confirm the latest checklist for your case.

Polio certificate

A polio certificate may be required for children below 12 years. You may need to obtain it from a local polio or government health center.

Apostille and Arabic translation

In practical experience, the polio certificate may need apostille and Arabic translation before submission at VFS.

Practical advice

Arrange the child documents early. Do not wait until the VFS appointment date because apostille and translation can take time.
