We have API 650 stainless steel storage tanks of 3m and 4m dia bottom plate having butt weld configuration without back strip.
The weld joints on soil side required Pickling and passivation?.
Soil side no painting.

I don't think there is anything in API-650 that would require pickling and passivation. That would be a contractual issue if required.
