What is an Exit/Re-Entry Visa in Saudi Arabia?

In order to leave the country either on vacation, business trip or for any other reason except on final termination of service, an expatriate requires an “Exit/Re-Entry Visa”, which can be issued only with the sponsor’s consent, permitting him to leave and re-enter the country within a specific duration.

If the employee does not return to the country before the expiry of a re-entry visa, he will be banned from entering the Kingdom for a period of two years.  It is therefore very important to verify the re-entry date prior to departure.

If any delay is anticipated in returning to the Kingdom prior to the expiry of the visa, the sponsor must be contacted before the expiry of the exit/re-entry visa for its extension.
