The Saudi Foreign Ministry said in a statement late Wednesday those registered for Qatar’s Hayya fan card will be able to apply for multiple-entry visas the kingdom 10 days before the tournament starts. Those granted visas will be able to stay for up to 60 days in Saudi Arabia. The Hayya card is mandatory for ticket holders going to the World Cup in November and December.
