Hi All,
I have a 2 questions please, my wife and children have UK passport, and now I iqama is issued. So, in order to apply for their Iqama :
1- Can they come to Saudi as a visitors ( Visa on arrival ) and I apply for their Iqama procedures inside Saudi ( i.e. medical will be done inside Saudi .... etc ) ? so they will not go back to UK to apply.
2- Can they apply in other country ( not UK ) for their Iqama ( i.e. we are originally from the middle east, so, they are currently in our home country for a long holiday, so, instead of they comeback to UK to apply for the Iqama, they will do the process from the Saudi Embassy in the home country in the middle east ) ?
Thank you,
Adam.

I know for question 1, I asked the same question during my onboarding and was told its not possible and for the family to remain in the UK.
Question 2 I'm unsure of, but I'd imagine being a UK passport, it may be a requirement for the Saudi embassy in the UK to process, however asking the relocation advisor would be my advice

The yellow slip you got in Damman has to be done via the embassy in the country of your nationality of application. Sure you can bring them over as tourists but they’ll have to go back to Britain to do the family visa. If you applied based on the other country you mentioned (assuming you are dual nationals), then they could goto that embassy in that country for the family viosa

Thank you, Adam. o, Can you share an update on what was finally done? My family will be with me in KSA on tourist visa and they will travel out as soon as i will get Yellow Slip. I am UK but I want to know if its mandatory for my family to apply in London? can they use other country where we have our second nationality?
