Hi,

I have an offer from company in Riyadh for computer programmer. I also have computer engineer degree but my company is saying that computer programmer visa is finished and no longer available with them. So they are applying Financual Analyst Visa for me.
But i have read and heard that if there is a difference in Visa type and degree then visa will be rejected by saudi cultural. I asked the same thing from my company they are saying that this is not a problem so will arrange to get me in on financial analyst visa.

Please let me know what will be the solution of the problem because i have come to india from singapore to complete my visa processing for saudi.

Dear, I am facing same problem, my visa is Technical Service advisor and my degree is Industrial Eng (B.E), and Saudi Consulate Pakistan has rejected even my degree attested by Saudi Culture and consulate, so if still you are in process then you advised to don't accept, it may creat problem.

However, if you got stamped visa then pls help me how you did?

Thanks

Not a problem. Get help from your employer @srinivasan_1983 to get the visa stamped (if embassy raises objections). They'll just issue a request letter to the saudi embassy in your country and all will be done.

Do bring your educational documents attested so that you may get the profession changed soon after your iqama is issued.

Ok. In case potential employee faces troubles in getting a visa issued in KSA embassies (in other countries), employers send soliciting letters to them to facilitate the process for employees.

Apply visa stamping through proper channel. If the embassy rejects, ask your employer to help. They definitely know what to do.
