Would you mind elaborate, how a proponent could spend money?  Should extra money pay to the official person or a third party agent?

Check with your HR probably he knows some guys. As our Hrs used to help this way when they are unable to get with current profession. Recently one guy got from my company.

Any response for iqama change

Dears.
profession change may be start but their is some conditions.
1) your company will be platinum or high green status.
2) your company submit all the documents to mol and gosi for their employees.

otherwise they block the company account and company will not able to change the profession and also not take the kafala.

my company facing this 2nd problem so i am updating you on this issue.

why i am saying profession is start because their is some guyz adverising they can change your profession thats means profession change is start now.

may be i am wrong but i did so much working on profession change because i also want to change my profession. so this is my update for you if someone have more please share with us..

thank you

any update on profession change on iqama??

Dears,
i am higher secondary qualified. my iqama profession is labour and working in accounts.

i want to change profession to apply visit visa.

which profession is possible to chage easly.


i hope suggestion....

thanks..

You will never meet official person. Pay it to the agent and he will get it done. Remember a good and reliable agent will not ask for advance payment while most fraud guys ask for half payment in advance and then disappear. Good luck

Thanks for your suggestion and

Dear,  do you have any idea about the angancy how much they will charge..(Approximate)

bcz i have chacked and they asking 6000sr.

I also want to change my profession and contacted 2 or 3 agents and they are all asking around 8K. I think 6k is reasonable or if you can negotiate to 5k. If you find one around this range please let me know also.

asalam alaikum

bro kindly share me the agent number and detail im also plan to change my iqama

Did u contact them? Any body successful in getting it done?

Hi everyone,
I have the profession of 'plumber on my Iqama. Recently I have applied for a job as a TEACHER because I have MASTERS degree in computer science.  The school is offering me Iqama transfer only if I have a profession of teacher on my Iqama. That's a problem for me because it's still plumber there. What can I do to change my 'plumber' profession to TEACHER??
