The Fastest Way to Get an Iqama in Saudi Arabia – A Step-by-Step Guide
Getting an Iqama (residency permit) in Saudi Arabia is mandatory for expatriates working in the Kingdom. However, many businesses and employees face delays, errors, and unexpected roadblocks that slow down the process.
At Massar Business Solutions, we streamline the entire process to ensure fast, hassle-free Iqama issuance. Here’s how:
Step 1: Secure a Valid Work Visa
Before arriving in Saudi Arabia, your employer must issue a work visa. This requires approval from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD) and a visa number from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
Step 2: Complete the Medical Examination
A mandatory medical check-up is required before your Iqama is processed. This ensures you meet Saudi health standards.
Step 3: Register with GOSI (General Organization for Social Insurance)
Employers must register employees with GOSI for social security and insurance purposes. Missing this step can lead to delays in work permit approvals.
Step 4: Submit Documents for Iqama Processing
Massar handles all documentation, including:
✔ Work contract submission
✔ Iqama fee payments
✔ Employer sponsorship verification
Step 5: Get Your Iqama in Record Time!
Once processed, your Iqama is issued, allowing you to legally live and work in Saudi Arabia. We ensure this happens fast—without stress or errors.
