Hi guys,
I have a loan from SABB bank. I have been woking with my current employer since last 3 years. Now i have a another offer. The other company will provide me visa as well, but i have to leave the Saudi Arabai and then i will come back on new visa. My question is do i have to clear my bank loan or i can keep paying the monthly instalments as normal.

Sorry, they will not allow you to leave if you owe money. One part of the final exit visa is getting a clearance from the bank.

Even if you have another job to come back to that does not mean you will get a visa to return. I have several friends that left thinking they were going to return with a new visa only to be turned down at by the Saudi Embassy in the US.
Banks know this so thy will not give you the clearance

if leaving with exit only, you will have to close and sell everything in your name
