Final Exit Visa: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to obtain a Final Exit Visa to legally depart Saudi Arabia permanently and understand the requirements for a smooth departure.

A Final Exit Visa provides the legal clearance required for expatriates who are planning to depart Saudi Arabia permanently.

Who it's for

This scheme is for expatriates living in Saudi Arabia who are planning to leave the country on a permanent basis. It is specifically for those who intend to depart for good rather than taking a temporary leave.

What you get

By completing this process, you receive the official legal clearance necessary to depart the country permanently. This ensures your departure is fully documented according to national regulations.

What it costs you

There is no fee for the worker to obtain this visa. However, the process is not something you initiate on your own; your employer is responsible for starting the application on your behalf.

The catch to know

You must ensure you have no outstanding obligations that would prevent your departure. Specifically, you cannot leave the country if you have any unpaid traffic fines or if there are any legal cases currently active against you. Addressing these matters is a necessary step before your exit can be finalized.

How to apply

  1. Confirm that you have no outstanding legal cases.
  2. Ensure all traffic fines have been settled.
  3. Coordinate with your employer to initiate the process.
  4. Follow the official procedures provided by the issuing authority.
