Hi Everyone,

I just noticed from the conversation I've read here that to be able to get Driver's License, one has to get Iqama or Residence Permit. My question is how would an Expat be able to get Iqama?
What are the qualifications and requirements?

Any input here would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks,
jof

you would have to come to the desert on a valid work visa.. that would be the first and i think more or less the only qualification.

Cheers!
