I have been informed that my visa has expired. I had calculated its expiry date as from date of entry but I have now been told it's from date of issue. Which is correct?
I have a flight booked for Monday. If it has expired what happens when I get to the airport?
I am trying to find out if I need to get an extension to avoid hassle at the airport when I depart in 2 days time.
I last re-entered Saudi Arabia from Bahrian on 17th August. My visa agency in London tell me I can stay for 30 days after that date which would validate my stay until Monday. Is this correct?

This is a real mystery as rules keep changing each time. I used to be on a multiple business visa myself. I counted my 30 days from the date of issue and not entry. You can star for n number of days which should be mentioned on your visa. For some cases its 15. Normally duration of stay is 30 days.
