Saudi Work Visa for Yemeni Citizens and Residents
Saudi Work Visa from Yemen
What Is the Saudi Work Visa?
The Saudi work visa is a residence visa issued to professionals and skilled workers who have received employment offers from companies registered in Saudi Arabia. Once issued, it enables you to:
- Enter Saudi Arabia for work purposes
- Live legally under your employer’s sponsorship
- Apply for a residence permit (Iqama) after arrival
This visa is required for all long-term employment in Saudi Arabia, whether for corporate, technical, or government roles.
