Toronto2KHR,
It seems you have all the required docs - because the visa block slip has been the main hold up for me. Other than this Aramco would give you a request letter addressed to Saudi Culture in Pakistan. This letter would need to be attested by MoFA in KSA (as I understand). Have you received these as well?
Keen to know how your case progresses now that you have your visa block slip.
I'm still waiting for mine!!
Thank

o!
Does anyone have an update on this issue?
Please let us know if your degree has been submitted to Saudi Culture in Pakistan for attestation - what documents were submitted with the degree, response from the Saudi Culture office, if you used an agent to submit your degree, etc ...
If you're waiting, then what stage in the waiting game are you for degree attestation ...
In my situation, I'm still waiting for my visa block, after which degree attestation process can hopefully begin. I already have by degree attested by HEC and MoFA in Pakistan.
Thanks!

UK_Finance_Applicant,
I have a UK degree and i am also waiting for the visa block. My understanding is that my degree is being attested by the Saudi cultural office and Saudi embassy without waiting for the visa block. Is it Saudi embassy in Pakistan requesting for visa block first means different embassies have different requirement or i am under a wrong impression that the degree can be attested without visa block. Any clarification would be appreciated. Many thanks

To my knowledge. The issue has been escalated to expat dept in Arabia and they are currently working on securing requested documents from Arabian ministry etc.
Having Ramadan starts from next weekend it may slow down the process of attestation in cultural center and embassy.
We got our visa le and currently waiting for degree attestation!
It will be very helpful to know the other people updates that are also in the same boat.

space99,
My advisor told me that nothing can be done till the visa le received; Saudi Culture in Pakistan does not attest a degree without visa le. This process can also take 20-30 days if no objection is raised by Saudi culture. That is why visa le must match with the degree. I am also waiting for visa le since Feb,2014.

I have recently submitted my documents for the cultural center & embassy attestation.
Aramco already provided me with the visa slip and e-wakala(visa block) which was submitted along with the agency letter and documents for attestation.
So far the process has been smooth just waiting for the documents to be done with attestation from the Saudi embassy for the visa process to start.

UK_Finance_Applicant, Good to Read your Message. So we are in the same boat. The good thing is that visa le stage finally started flowing last month, so hopefully we will get it soon. I am also ready with my degrees attested by HEC and MOFA. I tried to reply your PM but failed. May be I am not authorized to send PM.

Hey Borolady
Please refer to some of the earlier posts which has details on requirements we've gathered / been told. You need the letters addressed to Saudi Culture - these need to be attested by MoFA in KSA. You also need your visa block slip. For many on the form the process is either stuck at the stage where they are waiting for the visa block slip or where they are waiting for the letters !!
We wait for one who has successfully completed his attestation process and can guide / advice on the docs submitted and process followed !!
All the best - and please keep us all posted on how you get along!
Cheers
