Can Those Who Have Finished The Exit Re-entry Period Come On To Saudi Arabia The Old Visa?
Question: It Has Now Been Two Years And Four Months Since Exit Re-entry. Due To The Covid Crisis, It Would Not Be Possible To Return Within The Specified Time And The Exit Re-entry Would Be Extended And The Period Would Expire. Now Can I Come To Saudi On The Same Visa? Or Will I Have To Get A New Visa?
Answer: According To The Emigration Act, It Is A Condition That Those Who Went For Re-entry Must Return To The Country Within A Specified Period. Or They Can Extend The Exit Re-entry And Stay In Their Country. But It Should Have A Valid Of Iqama. In Your Case, If The Sponsor Has Not Canceled Your Visa, You Can Return To Saudi Arabia. For That, Iqama Should Be Renewed And The Exit Re-entry Period Should Be Extended. Only Then Can You Come Back With The Same Visa. They Have To Pay A Fee Of 100 Riyals For Each Month They Stay In Their Country On Exit Re-entry. It Has Now Been 28 Months Since You Exited And Re-entered. In That Case, 2800 Riyals Should Be Paid In Addition To The Fee For Renewing The Iqama.
Coming On A New Visa Is Not Practical Because Those Who Go Through Exit Re-entry And Do Not Return Within The Specified Time Have To Wait Three Years To Come To Saudi On A New Visa. Within This, If Desired, The Old Sponsor Can Come On A New Visa. At The Same Time, If You Want To Come On A New Visa Of Another Sponsor, It Will Be Possible Only After Three Years. This Is The Current Law.
