The General Directorate of Passports is showcasing the digital document for visitors to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia at the Ministry of Interior's pavilion in the LEAP 2024 Conference, taking place from March 4th to 7th at the Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Center. The digital document service is one of the digital and technical solutions provided to beneficiaries, including citizens, residents, and visitors, enabling them to benefit from services within the Kingdom.
The service aims to facilitate visitors' arrival procedures into the Kingdom by providing a unified number that allows them to access the Ministry of Interior's "Absher" electronic platform and extract their digital identities. These digital identities can be used in all their movements within the Kingdom on their mobile phones, eliminating the need for a physical passport.
The Ministry of Interior's participation in the world's most attended technology conference, LEAP 2024, highlights the integration of artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced technologies and innovative digital solutions. These advancements aim to improve the level of security, crowd management, human and environmental safety, and the organization of global events in alignment with the Kingdom's Vision 2030.
