FAQs About Saudi Arabia Visas for UK Residents
For UK passport holders and foreign nationals living in the UK, the initial Saudi Arabia Work Visa is issued as a 90-day single-entry entry visa. After entering the Kingdom, the applicant has 90 days to complete all post-arrival formalities, including:
Medical examinations
Health insurance issuance
Work permit activation
Residency permit issuance (Iqama)
This process is mandatory for all British citizens, London applicants, and UK residents relocating to Saudi Arabia for employment.
No. Even though the documents are similar, a Temporary Work Visa is only for short-term, hands-on tasks.
It cannot be used for full-time employment and does not provide an Iqama.
This means it is not suitable for employees being relocated by UK-based companies sending staff to Saudi Arabia.
Anyone taking a full-time role must apply for the official Saudi Work Visa.
