A question from Saudis!?

you need a mahram (relative like father, bro, husband) to reside in saudi arabia.

also, you will be under ur sponsor (a saudi) and he or she will renew ur contract after every 1-2 yrs. ur passport will be with him. he may renew the contract or send you back home.

many poor employees are cheated. many (not all) are not given their salaries for 4-6 months and when they ask, they are kicked out frm saudi arabia. saudi arabia is not as good as it seems.

it depends wht Allah has written in one's fate.

yes that's true too.

So, you need a local sponsor even if you are working for an organization or for the govt ?

I thought the only way the sponsor holds your passport, if you are working for an individual's business, like in his grocery store.

As Salamu 'Alaykum,

I would love to move to a Muslim Country such as Saudi Arabia or Israel. Just a little "dig" at those who persecute the Muslims in Palestine. Sorry, if it is inappropriate. I just hate having history and current affairs shaped with a bias perspective. I loved the America of the Constitution even if it existed only in my mind. I love Allah much more.

If your working for private company its called Job visa where the company is your sponsor same with govt.job also.

You do any business also u need a sponsor. In general you cannot work in Saudi Arabia without a sponsor. Exceptions in case your a diplomat

as bro AbuTalib told, you need a sponsor no matter where you work. in govt or pvt sector. even if you want to open ur business, you need sponsor.

btw, my grandfather opened cargo business here...it was working good, so the sponsor took over. you know they have full power. sometimes its risky to have a great business here. :)

:wasalam:,

once you get permanent residence, you can travel in and out freely. its just like being a national of a country like india, canada, etc.

as a canadian national, you will not require a visit visa to come to canada right?

but the problem is you cant get the permanent residence so easily.

Oh bro I did hear this too as, if you do good business and the sponsor becomes greedy either he asks you a large sum of share or he takes it over and your left no where I really hate this
