Hi,

I got my passport stamped with Saudi work visa with a validity of 90 days. But unfortunately I am not in a position to travel now. Is it required to cancel the visa or it will automatically cancelled after the expiry date. I will inform the employer regarding my decision with the proper reason. Is there any implication if I could not travel? Is there any chance to ban me to get visa in future?

It will be automatically cancelled, if you won’t take action. In that case probably you will be blacklisted for few years for future job opportunities. It’s better to inform your employer, so that they can take suitable action of cancelling your visa.
