Hi Guys,

I need some help. My wife and I are considering to relocate to the Kingdom. I have been offered a job in Riyadh which I have accepted.
My wife is also in the process of negotiating a job offer from a seperate company. This will obviously mean that we have seperate sponsors. Does this pose any problems? Will we be allowed to live together in the Kingdom?
I have been offered a housing allowance, but I am hoping to live with my wife who will be provided with compound accomodation.

Is anybody else here in similar situations and can you please advise accordingly?

Many Thanks!

As I understood the regulation in the Kingdom as long as there's proper documentation about your marriage. You can live with her in the compound she is offered as accommodation. Regarding your housing allowance it should be given to you and you're free to use it however you wish to do, this is typically the practice from how expat here are doing.. thou, my advice to re-confirm with proper channels like the embassy :) G.luck and wish you a pleasant stay in the Kingdom.
