Hi all...I recently got an offer to work in Saudi ,bt I'm facing a problem of name mismatch.....my name on passport is SHOWKAT AHMED SHAH while as in Degree certificate it is SHOWKAT AHMAD SHAH....only E is replaced By A in middle name....can I create any problem while relocating to Riyadh...??

It may create a problem as they want ur name t nbe exactly the same in Saudi for ur visa to be processed.

I suggest that u get ur spelling changed in the passport by showing them ur educational certificates.

All the best

I think under the new passport rules, you can no longer make amendments, you will have to make and pay for a new passport, please inform what happened.

Sorry my advice will not apply to you. I just noticed you are from india and not Pakistan. I am late by 67 years, we were one country then
