Saudi Arabia Work Visa
What Is a Saudi Work Visa?
The Saudi Work Visa is issued to foreign nationals who have secured employment with a company registered in Saudi Arabia.
It allows you to enter the Kingdom, work legally, and later obtain your Iqama (residence permit) for long-term stay.
This visa is essential for anyone relocating to Saudi Arabia for full-time employment or contractual work under a Saudi sponsor or employer.
Who Can Apply?
You can apply for a Saudi Work Visa from Morocco if:
You have a valid employment offer from a Saudi-registered company.
Your Saudi employer (sponsor) has obtained the work visa authorization through the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) or the Ministry of Human Resources (MHRSD).
You hold a valid Moroccan passport with at least 6 months’ validity.
Attestation and Legalization
Before submission to the Saudi Embassy, key documents such as your degree, marriage certificate, and medical report must be:
