I am just checking to see if there are people here heading to the Kingdom next week. Are you all sorted for accomodation and the pre departure orientation etc what other things are you sorting out?
I guess it's easy to forget one or two things, so I am checking to see what others are doing for their preparation

It's important to instruct your bank(s)/broker(s) that you're changing residence. And do whatever is needed in your country to ensure that your tax authorities are aware that you are changing tax residence to avoid any tax issues in 2024.

The only useful thing I can offer is that the photo they take on arrival is the one that will be on your iqama and driving licence forever. It’s worth washing your face and giving your hair a comb.

They did take my picture on arrival last week - not sure if they are refreshing the picture or they have went to Facial Recognition rather than fingerprint.

Thank you. That’s quite useful, consider the fact that many would arrive after hours of flight/sleeping
