Saudi Passports Directorate outlines final exit visa process after mutual contract termination
Saudi authorities clarify that workers whose contracts end by mutual agreement must book an appointment with the Expatriates Department to obtain a final exit visa.
The Saudi authorities have provided detailed information on the final exit visa process for workers whose contracts are terminated by mutual agreement. According to the General Directorate of Passports in Saudi Arabia, individuals must first schedule an appointment at the regional Expatriates Department to obtain the necessary documentation.
This clarification was issued in response to a question from a follower who asked how a final exit visa could be issued when a work contract ends by mutual consent and the residency permit is valid for over a year.
For domestic workers, the process has been streamlined through the Absher platform, an electronic service provided by the Ministry of Interior. Users can access the final exit visa application through the Absher Individuals e-services portal. After logging into Absher, they should select "workers," proceed to "visa services," and finally choose to issue a final exit visa for the domestic worker. This electronic method simplifies the otherwise cumbersome process of applying for an exit visa.
