Work Visa & Residence Permit

Work legally in Saudi Arabia with employer sponsorship. Expert guidance through the application process.

About Work Visa & Residence Permit

The Saudi Arabia Work Visa allows Georgian citizens to work legally in Saudi Arabia with employer sponsorship. This visa is essential for professionals seeking career opportunities abroad.

Processing typically takes 3-10 days, though employer sponsorship and labor market requirements may extend this timeline. Work visa policies differ significantly across countries. Unlike Oman, Saudi Arabia has its own specific requirements for employer sponsorship and skill qualifications.

Most work visas require a job offer from a Saudi Arabia employer willing to sponsor your application. The employer must typically demonstrate that no local candidates are available for the position.
