Tawakkalna App Registration and Login in India

The Tawakkalna App was developed by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), originally to support government efforts against Covid-19. It is now Saudi Arabia’s unified national app, giving citizens, residents and visitors access to digital documents (such as iqama/ID and passport details) and more than 1,000 government services.

Update (November 2026): The old country list below dates from the Covid period, when Tawakkalna worked only in about 75 countries. Since 4 August 2025, SDAIA says Tawakkalna’s digital government services can be accessed from anywhere in the world, including India (SPA, SDAIA). Login for citizens and residents now uses Nafath verification.

Tawakkalna Registration for Indians

In order to access services of the tawakkalna App, users will need to register themselves on the app. Here are the registration steps for both residents and visitors.

For Residents

  • Visit https://ta.sdaia.gov.sa/en/index to download the app
  • Register a new user and enter the required information
  • Verify your identity through Nafath (or the verification code sent to your mobile number registered in Absher)
  • Complete the profile steps shown in the app (the old Covid-era location and health questions are no longer part of registration)

For Visitors

  • Visit https://ta.sdaia.gov.sa/en/index to download the app
  • Fill in your personal information, which includes passport number, phone number, date of birth and nationality
  • You will receive a verification code via SMS. Input the verification code
  • Create a password of 8 or more characters

Registration without Absher account

For those without an Absher account, you may obtain one here. If you do not have a verified Absher account, the Ministry of Interior’s “Identify Mobile Number for Tawakkalna App” service lets a sponsor or family member with Absher verify your mobile number (my.gov.sa).

Tawakkalna Registration from India

  • In 2021, Tawakkalna said it was not possible to register as a new user from outside the Kingdom, and that visitor registration required being inside the Kingdom.
  • Since August 2025, existing accounts can be used worldwide. Official announcements do not clearly say whether brand-new registrations now work from abroad, so the safest approach is still to register (and set up Nafath) while you are in Saudi Arabia.

Tawakkalna Login for Indians

For Residents

  • Visit https://ta.sdaia.gov.sa/en/index to download the app
  • Enter your Iqama number
  • Confirm the login in the Nafath app (choose the number shown in Tawakkalna), or use the other verification option the app offers
  • You’ll be successfully logged in

For Visitors

  • Visit https://ta.sdaia.gov.sa/en/index to download the app
  • Login with your Visitor Mobile Number and the password that you created during registration
  • You would receive a verification code on your mobile number registered in Absher
  • Enter the verification code and you’ll be successfully logged in

Tawakkalna Login from India

Since 4 August 2025, Tawakkalna can be used from India and any other country. If you already have an account, you can log in from India as usual (keep Nafath working on your phone, since login verification goes through it). If you have never registered, try to register while you are still in Saudi Arabia.
