No issue. Proceed

@Qayyum :-->  To get Registered in Saudi Engg Council, First you need to come here to Saudi arabia,
For that you need to get a job from any Saudi organization So start searching for Job for KSA,

Ones you get the offer letter from any Saudi organization then submit your certificates + offer letter to Saudi embassy in your country for attestation of your credentials (certificates).
After that get your visa stamped come here then submit all your credentials here to Saudi Engg Council !

Lastly, Type: Engineer with non-engineering Iqama or Visa (I choose this answer during my registration because I want to change my profession from Erector to Engineer).

It's your employer who is responsible to change you iqama, because holding a working permit or iqama should require an employee to register on SCE and to submit school credentials..so prior to hiring you to work with that job in his company they would have given you already an engineering visa intended for that job, if not then the employer is liable for hiring you with non engineering visa, and you can't be entertained by SCE if your visa is non engineering..advise your employer to change your working visa and reapply for SCE accreditation again...

Sorry dear but it's your wrong statement. Non engineer profession first register their self with saudi council of engineer and after that your kafeel(company) apply to jawazat for change of profession. Once your company applied for change of profession, you will get your engineer profession iqama within few days.... :):):)

Dear Noyp,
                  It's not big issue. just visit near branch of SCE and they will correct it..... ;)

Hi,
I'm new to this blog i need some information regarding degree attestations

I had given my documents to an agency for attestations after HRD and MEA i got an email from SACA on 3rd  october after how many days doc's will reach university for verification

Plz help me anyone here as my medical is going to expire on 7th november 2015 need this process done on or before 1st of november.

Thanks you for this bkog plz reply its urgent

mch2kor

Hi Anand,
I am also in the same period of process. I got the mail from SACA on 5th Oct. When checked with university they said they have not yet received my file or courier. So again I am trying to get the details of courier or speed post so that it can be tracked and follow up with university.
I got information from one of the blogger that usually it takes 3 weeks to get complete. But if we follow up with university, may get complete in a week or max by 10 days. Just check with university whether your file has reached or not. If reached then request them to process at earliest. This is the way u can fast process.

Anand soni

Thanks for the reply it will really help me plz update us when your docunent will reach university

Thanks again

Hi,

I was in KSA and I was member of SCE. I left on final exit and now going back on a new visa. Do I need to make a new registration with SCE or the old one can be updated with new visa information? Earlier my profession was Telecom Engineer and this time it is Electrical Engineer.

If your SCE membership is not expired, you can still renew it or change profession...but if it is expired for more than 90 days then you will need to open another account for new sce accreditation.

bilalasif

It was expired and I requested the renewal. Now it says that renewal is approved and I should pay 750 SAR renewal fee. My question is how to change from my old iqama number to new border entry number after membership renewal? And will it automatically change my profession from Telecom Engineer to Electrical Engineer because profession on my new visa is Electrical Engineer while in SCE it's still Telecom Engineer?

On the ''MY Work Space Menu'' you can find options, there is an option prompted ( Change Iqama, Change to new border, change profession )

Hello Engineers,

Currently I'm working as an Iqama profession Industrial laying out Electric whereas my qualification is Electrical Engineer. Accordingly, I registered in Saudi Council of Engineers and amount paid of SR 1250 (500+750) and currently my profile in SCE tells that Initially approved. By seeing this, I called Customer care of SCE and they saying now you can proceed to change your profession as Engineer by informing your HR Dept to proceed with Labour office. Now I have doubt whether I need to give any documents to my HR dept ( in the sense proof that I registered in SCE) or else in labour they ll realise through there system by entering my Iqama no? Please advise.

Thanks for reading

Kind Regards,
Irfan

Dear Sir,
           I, Muhammad Usman Azhar, has applied for a registration of my degree online. But later on, I had an issue with my company so i went to Jawazat for a final exit. They are saying that there is an objection declared by the Saudi engineering council. Right now I am in Jeddah and i need final exit as soon as possible. I have also bought my ticket for Wednesday 17-Aug-2016. I need to get it done today. Kindly cancel my registration so that Jawazat provides me with a final exit. I would be grateful to you if you respond.

Regards,
Muhammad Usman Azhar

You can registered with SCE without attesting the Degree but to change iqama profession to engineer then Degree attestation would be required

RaviShekharPrasad

Hello Everyone,
I am working as safety staff in Riyadh but my iqama profession is building technician. I checked the Saudi counsel for engineers website, there is no safety staff profession. now my iqama going to expire in few months. what should I do?. please help me with your valuable guidance.Thanks.

Kaby

Now Its compulsory for Building Technicians to get registered with Saudi Engg Council for Iqama renewal. For First time Registration you got to pay SR 500 and Yearly Membership of SR 200, So total of SR 700 Plus you have to Show Technician Certificate.

RaviShekharPrasad

But I don't have building technician qualification. I have only safety related documents.
In this case, what is next to do by me.
