My husband`s iqama has been renewed since ramzan, and handed over to him by the company.Iqama is issued from Riyadh, since the company`s main branch is there, but he works in Jeddah.He did n`t gave them his dependent`s ( wife n son) iqamas for renewal, as last year , my husband just went to the Jeddah jawazat, n got the older ones exchanged with the new ones, but now they are asking to get it from Riyadh.

Can anyone please suggest, how can we get our iqamas from jeddah?

Hi,
officially you have to print from Riyadh other wise you need agent or ( wasta ) but cost you too much.
its better to go Riyadh and print there and make sure next time.
