Teaching English for KSU 2014/15 - Think again by MohOmar

No u need an exit visa otherwise you will not be able to leave the country. Exit visa can be issued easily by the employer. It's just one piece of paper and you take it with you to the airport. Read More

They are offering the employment visa which then leads to the iqama. The agent who handles this process has good connections which is why they can get it done in such a quick time period. I've got my visa. Waiting to fly out. I know people ... Read More
