Exit Re-Entry Visa Validity and status

Saudi govt laws are very strict for expats. Because KSA is a rich country and people of nearby poor countries want to work there.

But Saudi Govt cannot control this much people so they have a clear policy on it. They only want to keep beneficial people in their country. They prefer mostly doctors, Engineers or other skilled people.

Exit re-entry is also a Law to control Expats So If you want to Exit from KSA you need an Exit Visa for this. If you want to come again for work then you need Exit re-entry Visa. You need to follow certain rules and guidelines to avail all this. You can read more details on the Saudi Embassy website.

To check the status of Exit Re-entry visa you need a new app called “Absher” It is available in android and Apple iPhone. I will highly recommend to install and use this app if you are an Expat.

The registration process on this app is available on our website you can check it here. All the issues and status related to expats are available on this app now. Like iqama status, Huroob status, Traffic violation Fines and many other tools.

Muqeem:

Muqeem word is used for expats in KSA. the process of visa checking for Muqeem is also the same as we have explained above.

Enjaz Visa:

It is a portal by Govr of Saudi Arabia to facilitate Expats in visa issues you can simply visit this site: enjazit.com.sa To check status or submitting an application. If you have any question or confusion related to Enjaz kindly ask in the comments section below.

E-visa system:

E-visa is a new system introduced by Govt recently. With the help of this system, you can apply for the visa online. You don’t need to visit any office etc. currently you can apply only for visit visa with help of this system but in future Govt is thinking to make all the process online so that people can easily avail any kind of visa from the comfort of their home.

Visa Fees:

Govt usually updates visa policies and fees so we have another article where we have updates fee details. you can read it here.

If you are facing any issue related to iqama or Visa in Saudi Arabia kindly write in the comments section we will try best to reply and help.

As Saudi Arabia is Second-tier Country Like UAE, Dubai, Qatar, China, Russia So this reason that Visa Process is different if you have a 3rd tier country passport. But If you have a strong Passport Like USA, UK, Germany or France then it is easy to get Saudi Visa.

  5. Dears,

    When renewing the visit visa for my relative, Absher advised that there is no medical insurance. Note that medical insurance is valid through 09-01-2021 by Solidarity for Mrs. Amal Anouti under no. 620242812020.
    I’ll renew this policy on the website, please make sure it will be linked to the Saudi Passports to enable visa renewal

    For further communication, please contact 0537144378

  6. My son is now studying in USA having an exit-reentry visa valid upto Mid- April-2020. Due to COVID-19 he is not able to come to KSA. His Iqama is valid upto July-2021. Now what will be the status of his exit-reentry visa. How it will be extended. In the social media there are lot of news that ER visa will be extended automatically or some cases will be done by sponsor. There is a new button for visa extension. Somebody noted this is for employees only, not for family member.

    Is there any clear information how it will be done. Some people wrote that this will be renewed automatically for 3 months like Auto Iqama renewal. I hope this should be the case for exit-reentry visa (auto extension). Inshallah we can hope for this good news.

  7. Visa number and is there any validity date for that and where it is mentioned in the passport? Please make sure that I am not talking about the Exit-Re-entry Visa Number and its validity ( As that number keep changing on each exit-reentry.
    Suppose I have not travelled for 2/3 years and staying in KSA, what would be by Visa Number and its validity? That is the one the Indian Banks are asking these days.
    Please advise.

    Thank you
