Saudi Temporary Work Visa for Los Angeles Citizens and Residents
Saudi Temporary Work Visa from Los Angeles, California
What Is the Saudi Temporary Work Visa?
The temporary work visa (TWV) is designed for professionals engaged in short-term assignments, typically lasting up to 90 days, with the option to extend once for another 90 days.
This visa is issued based on a temporary work authorisation number provided by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) and requires full documentation and compliance with embassy regulations. We coordinate directly with Saudi authorities and your employer to ensure all approvals are secured before submission.
