Hi,

After I get my iqamah I want to start inviting my family immediately by applying for a resident visa for them. Their documents (marriage certificate, birth ceritificate and my uuniversity degrees) are all translated and stamped in Europe? Will this be a problem? I heard from some people, that translation needs to be done here, but I already have the stamp of the KSA ambassy on the translation that I had done in Europe.

Or can I go to MOFA to let it be stamped, so that I know for sure it will not be rejected. I was by the way rejected today at MOFA for the stamps because the stamp of the embassy and that of the saudi cultural mission where not on the same document (one on the original document and the other one on a copy) and because I didn't had my iqama yet. But I assume getting this stamp will not be a problem, right?

Hamudi my friend. The fact that I am a perfectionist is the reason why my company wanted me here . Apparantly it is a very scarce trait here in KSA. So thnx for the compliment.

And I am already here, but thnx for your comments. Some of them were very useful!
