Hi, Friends.... I am from India. I got the job in Saudi.

I received the VISA duly stamped on my passport with wrong surname. I have noted that it was not spelling mistake but the entire surname was wrongly printed.

I checked other details like passport number, MOFA Number on VISA and found OK. I also checked other details like GAMCA Slip and Medical report and found the name, middle name and surname as per my passport only.

Will some one guide what to do now ?

Get it corrected or you could well be refused entry
