Dear Expats,

I have a question to ask.

I came to KSA on new work visa and its been 3 months. I am looking for another job and I am afraid it transfer option would be available in my case or not.

Pls, give your advices on how to proceed once I get another job in KSA.

Thanks.

If your iqama is expired or not renewed then you can directly transfer without current company approval. Or else you will need current company approval for transfer
