I am moving to Saudi for work with my spouse and she is currently working in Indian company in a remote setup. Can she continue her job in India remotely on a dependent visa while living in Saudi?

Yes. To be extra careful, let her get paid in home country bank account.

Mihir,

Not sure what profession or company she is in. Generally in most companies they have cybersecurity tools to protect employees systems from hacking or data theft. If you login from other country it might be tracked by the organization IT team and might cause an escalation.

Secondly, there might be an app related to work that doesn't open or work due to unrelated location login (tracked by IP and location) if there are any particular restrictions.

So it's a trial and error basis if it works, it works. Otherwise better to have a plan B with you.

Hope that helps and all the best.
