Saudi Arabia Work / Employment Visa

Those who need a visa for work in Saudi Arabia will be sponsored by their employer. This means that much of the bureaucracy involved will be dealt with by the company. Most large organisations have a member of staff whose job it is to deal with the paperwork and regulations surrounding foreign workers. They can help to deal with any queries you may have with your visa application. Large international organisations are more experienced with the regulations regarding foreign workers, so if the applicant needs assistance the new employer should be the first port of call.

Saudi work / employment visa requirements are as follows:

  1. Forward your passport, which must be valid for at least six (6) months from the application date and the passport has got at least two pages free, showing the applicant’s full name and date of birth.
  2. Foreign passport holders (i.e. not N.Z.) must have at least 6 month NZ visa (any type).
  3. Submit fully completed visa application form for all applications, either typed or neatly written in block letters.
  4. Two (2) recent passport size photographs must be loosely attached (not stapled) to the application form. Photographs should be approx 6×4 cm in size (passport size photo) and taken against a white or very light background.
  5. Number and date of your visa authorisation issued by the Saudi Foreign Ministry. This should be arranged by the sponsor in Saudi Arabia.
