Hi everyone. I really need some advise.
3weeks from now Im leaving Saudi Arabia for my final exit, but I have some issue with my passport validity, My passport will expire on june 28,2017, and one of my friends told me that I should atlease apply for an extension since my it will only be valid for 3months during my final exit, because during exit he told me that I should have atleast 6months passport validity. Does anybody know about an issue like this? I read a thread in this forum with issue like this before but there is no response if he/she leave saudi arabia without any problems.
Please help me.
Thank you.

Hi Mark, if you're going back home (Philippines) for final exit, there should be no problem unless there is a new rule. But if you're going somewhere else other than the Phils., then you really have to have a passport valid at least for six (6) months.

To be sure, you may check with the Government Relations office in your company.

Hope this helps🙂
