Hamdullillah!!!

The Last few days I spent trying to find out of I can enter the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, KSA, with my Right Hand Drive vehicle and if I can, how do I continue from there. The more I found out, the less likely was this trip to happen.
Automobil club and other KSA governmental institutions responded with a clear "no, not allowed under any circumstances". Forums gave me the same response: nobody had made it.

The med cert was not issued by the appropriate office, I did not have a permission of the KSA department for I don't know, but, Hamdullah again, the UAE officer had already completed an application for me. And so, after a lot of smiles, and many more hamdullahs, you are traveling alone? Hamdullah! All the way from australia? Hamdullah! With a dog? Hamdullah! i was waved through all the checkpoints and arrived in KSA.
But now my only hope is, that, Inshallah! I won't get sent back with my forbidden RHD.Читать далее
