Saudi Arabia announced Sunday it would allow unmarried foreign couples to rent hotel rooms together as the ultraconservative kingdom begins offering up tourist visas for the first time.
The tourism authority said in a statement published on Twitter that Saudi women travelling alone would also be able to check into a hotel by presenting valid ID.
In the past, couples wanting to stay in a hotel had to prove they were married.
Quote
“This is no longer required for tourists,”
the statement said.
Saudi Arabia announced on September 27 it was opening its doors to holidaymakers with the goal of diversifying its oil-dependent economy.
The kingdom had previously only issued visas to Muslim pilgrims, foreign workers, and recently to spectators at sporting or cultural events.
Kickstarting tourism is one of the centrepieces of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s Vision 2030 reform programme to prepare the biggest Arab economy for a post-oil era.

Impending doom lingers if we fail to re-strategize and begin now to build the future of our dreams and people and generations unborn. Jettison religious fanaticism , tribalism, corruption and red-tap-ism and begin an honest constructive over-haul of our system and practices for the better future we seek.

[quote author=Baye77 Are we ever serious about anything other than corruption, religion, trabalism and every other non progressive factor. We are obviously living a lie as a nation and can't progress with this falsehood.  We need to get real., get serious and rebuild inwards out from the scratch.
