Law, Rules, and Regulations For Final Exit Visa

Jawazat Saudi Arabia states the following rules and regulations before applying for a final exit visa.

No Traffic Fines Left Unpaid

Make sure that you pay all the traffic fines. The electronic system notifies immediately and stops the applicant from availing the service.

Fill the Final Exit Visa Form

While filling the form, make sure the details exactly match with the features available on your passport. After that, hand it over to the Sponsor. He will sign it and make an attestation from Ghurfa Tujariyah. Also, provide a copy of your iqama. Furthermore, keep in mind that any small mistake in filling the form can delay the process.

Rules to Visit Jawazat

The Jawazat won’t entertain you if you go there without the sponsor or a legal representative of your sponsor. Furthermore, It’s a rule that you cannot leave KSA unless your sponsor allows you to exit the kingdom.

Absher Fingerprint Registration

You must have enrolled in Absher with fingerprints. The new system needs every expat to register with Absher. So make sure that you are registered before applying.

As now the Jawazat is closed due to Corona pandemic, therefore the kafeel or the company will arrange it. Also, if you already have a final exit visa then you can ask the company to extend it. Because there are no flights or limited.

However, If you want to travel back to your native country, then you can use the “Awdah” service. you can access it through your Absher account. The service will help you to leave Saudi Arab by arranging flight tickets and other important procedures.

How To Apply For Final Exit Visa

To apply for the visa, you need the following documents and then start the final exit process, which we are going to discuss in detail.

Required Documents

The following documents are required.

  1. The final exit visa form correctly filled and attested by the employer.
  2. Original Passport of the applicant
  3. Original iqama of the applicant. And It must be valid.
  4. A No Objection Letter, NOL, by the employer,
  5. For a domestic worker ( Saiq Khaas, personal driver, maid, etc.), the employer must provide a clearance form attested by a local recruitment agency or Maid Care Center. It should clearly state that the applicant has received all dues ( salaries, any arrears, end of service benefits, etc.)
  6.  In case an expat marries and divorces a Saudi national, then the divorce paper is required to present in Jawazat.

Procedure

The procedure is effortless; it is worth mentioning that if you are working in a company, the administration department carries out the process and informs you about the issuance of the visa. However, if someone is working with a kafeel, or the company allows to process the final exit visa, then he may need to follow the process.

  • Prepare the Documents

It is good practice to make a file and gather all the required documents. Jawazat needs all the documents for legal purposes. So be well prepared

  • Visit Jawazat

In the next step, schedule a visit to the jawazat office with your kafeel. Either he comes along with you or may send a legal representative. In both cases, the process will continue.

  • Submit the Documents

The kafeel will submit all the required documents. Jawazat will check for any mistake. And if everything goes fine, the authorities will keep the docs, and after a few days, jawazat will issue the final exit visa.

  • Getting Notified

Registering with Absher has many benefits. One is that you receive an SMS on your mobile phone on the completion of the requested service. So as soon as jawazat issues the visa, you will receive a message. Furthermore, you can also check the status of the final exit visa online. To do that, we are providing the method in detail.

Final Exit Visa Fee

The most exciting part of the whole procedure is that Jawazat doesn’t charge any fee for the final exit visa in Saudi Arabia. Which means it is absolutely a free service. However, if your iqama is expired, then you need to renew it. For Iqama, you or the sponsor has to pay a fine, which is 500 riyals for the first time.

As per the rules, Jawazat doesn’t start the procedure on an expired iqama.

Check Final Exit Visa Status Online

To Check final exit visa status, you have two methods. In the first method, if you are checking the status for a dependant, then you can use the online service of Absher.

Besides, the second method, You will use the “eserve visa” portal. It is a dedicated service to inquire exit, re-entry visas. We are explaining both ways in detail in this article.

Furthermore, we are providing a brief overview. To check the status,

  • visit Eserve Portal
  •  In the first value, Enter iqama number or visa number. You can find it on your passport.
  • In the second value, enter the passport number of date of birth. You can also enter the iqama or visa expiry date.
  • Click on ‘Check’

If the Jawazat has issued the visa, you will find it on the screen. Otherwise, you may have to wait a few more days.  The next step is printing it.

Printing Final Exit Visa

To print final exit visa in Saudi Arabia, you must have an account on the muqeem service. You can access this service through the Elm portal. But unfortunately, only the sponsor can use and print documents. It is a paid service, and sponsors pay an annual fee.

Therefore to get the print out of the visa paper, you need to ask the kafeel or company.

Final Exit Visa Validity

The issuance of the final exit visa takes a few days. But when it is issued, the validity period is 60 days from the day of issuance. If you have received it, then you must travel within two months.

We have observed that sometimes companies delay the payments of the benefits, arrears, and end of service. If that happens, then companies mostly renew iqama of the applicant and cancel the exit visa.

The applicant waits until he receives the end of service benefits. After giving the arrears, companies apply for the visa, and the applicant leaves KSA as soon as possible.

Additional Information

You can leave Saudi Arabia at any time. However, at the end of the contract is the best time. The reason is that you will get the full end of service benefits.

Also, the Company can’t force you to change your decision. And you can receive a handsome amount of money in return.

However, it is essential to inform the company by writing a letter or notice. You must notify your sponsor as per your contract.

Few sponsors need to be informed before one month while some sponsors want the application, letter, three months before the end of the contract.

You can write a simple letter, describing why you are willing to go on final exit. You can also mention family problems in the letter. But if you don’t want to say any reason, write that you are not willing to extend your contract.

After writing, hand over the exit letter to the concerned person. If you are not sure how to write it, you can find plenty of letter formats and samples on the internet.
