Iqama Transfer while outside the Kingdom

Hi All,


I was a licensed specialized dentist in KSA. Then, I  transferred my Iqama back on my spouse.


Now I would like to start working, but the new clinic is taking some time to trigger the iqama transfer process.

Meanwhile, we would like to travel.


Is it possible to transfer my iqama from my spouse to a company while we are abroad with exit/reentry visa?


P.S. You might think why I need to transfer while I am abroad but not back in KSA. It is because some working permissions related to my profession is expiring while I am abroad. I can extend those permissions only while my iqama is under a clinic.


Thanks in advance to all who would like to share their views.


Regards,

U
