Is it possible to get a Saudi Transit Visa at the UAE - Saudi Border?
I am driving my car down from the UAE to Qatar and have all the necessary documents in hand except for the Saudi transit visa. Unfortunately, due to the Eid holidays, they embassy returned my application/passport saying that they had no time or quota left to accept any more applications and I could get it at the border. It is a 560 km drive to Sila and I would like to be sure I get the visa at the border prior to attempting this. I have a valid residence visa (Qatar) and driving licence, I have the export plates & Insurance (Dubai), and I know that I can get Insurance for Saudi Arabia and further for Qatar at the border. The car is wholly owned by me with all relevant documents available. The only sticking point is whether I can get a transit visa at the UAE-Saudi border.
Anybody who could help, it would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Reb,
i'm facing the same situation now. can u pls let me know whether u got transit visa from uae-saudi border or not,
as i'm planning to bring my car from uae to qatar,at present i'm a qatar resident.
Regards
My PRO was told by the guy at the Saudi Embassy that it would be given at the UAE-Saudi border. Perhaps there is a change in the rules? There were many applications returned as the guy said they had reached a quota allowed prior to Eid and the rest of us could get it at the border.
anyway, Im gonna try and if it doesnt work, try from Dubai.
dear friend,
there is no procedure of getting visa at border for ksa. it has to be always stamped from embassy of the present country. u were misguided. any way try after embassy opens.

No, u can't...You have done all the preparations but forgot the most important thing- the saudi transit visa...
My freind you should have arranged the transit visa earlier ... It is not possible to get visa on Saudi border . ..... If you have to bring your car in Qatar or UAE another option to let your car bring by some one who doesnt required Saudia Visa ..... It will cost you depending on the size of your car .........
