Saudi Arabia Work Visa
Who Can Apply from Nepal
The Saudi Work Visa program is open to eligible applicants from Nepal who meet Saudi employment and sponsorship criteria, including:
Nepalese citizens and legally residing foreign nationals in Nepal who have obtained a verified job offer from a Saudi employer.
Qualified professionals and skilled workers across sectors such as construction, engineering, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing, logistics, and technical services.
Individuals appointed to long-term employment, contractual roles, or project-based assignments within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Candidates sponsored by a Saudi-authorized company or government institution holding an approved work authorization issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (HRSD).
Visa approval is contingent upon official Saudi employer sponsorship and a valid work authorization. Nepalese nationality or residency alone does not grant eligibility without an approved sponsor.
