Exit Saudi Arabia and Transfer to UAE (iqama profession laborer)

Post new topic

Jeszie

My Friend is a programmer almost 2 years working here in Saudi Arabia
he's plan after end of his contract is to Request Final Exit and go visit his friend in
dubai and find a new job there.. is this possible? the problem here is that his work profession on his
visa is Installation laborer instead of a programmer.

Need Advice please i heard if your profession is  laborer you cannot apply Visit Visa to UAE from KSA.

His friends can sponsor a visa for him. Shouldn't be an issue.

or let him apply through emirates airline.

Thanks hamudi .

How about if his Kafeel will give him Exit Re-entry instead of Final Exit?

Ali_N

That depends purely on the Kafeel...You gotta convinve the Kafeel for a final exit and not for an exit re-entry as that would make your friend a need to come back to the kingdom within 6 monts else face a ban of 2 years I think...

Jeszie

He dont really mind if he will be banned in Saudi... his only concern it is possible to get visit  visa in UAE if his visa in KSA is Exit Re-entry and iqama profession is Installation Laborer.

Hi Jeszie how are your friend doing now? Did your friend got an employee visa in dubai with an exit/re entry visa in KSA? I am currently planning to do it also, i will leave KSA this holiday without resigning since I got a work in UAE.
