The Consulate of Saudi Arabia is the representative office of Saudi Arabia, a foreign country, and it is not a part of Indian Governance system. As such, they do not fall within the purview of RTI under (Indian) RTI Act. Laws enacted by the legislature of any sovereign country are not applicanle to other countries and/or their representative offfice(s). Accordingly, you cannot file an RTI Application with the Consulate for accessing information under the provisions of an Indian Law. You can, however, write a letter to them requesting them to share with you the information that you are loking for abour the Rules governing issuance of visa for a visit to their country. Most Consulates generally share such basic information(s) with the foreigners / tourists intending to visit theri country. S K NANGIA
