Hello to all
I worked in the past in K. Saudi Arabia and had an Iqama at the time.
Now I recieved a proposition to represent one company from Europe, BASED in Europe, to go and work for several periods of 30 days each period (visa permit), and return every 30 days to the origin coumtry.
Because I had an iqama in the past, can I request it, in order to stay longer period (more than 30days)?
Thank you for the answers

No. Not unless a KSA employer sponsors you for one. Past iqamas cannot just be "requested"
