Hello Leigh,
I doubt you will find partners on the forum. Maybe you should contact the Ministry of Investment and make a proposal :
You may also post an advert in the Business partners in Saudi Arabia section of the website so that interested members might contact you.

Hi All,
I'll head to Riyadh in the next few months from London. I have been to KSA several times and looking forward to making it my home.
I wanted to check in with anyone from the UK that has moved across or would know the answer to this. Do you require a Degree for every profession/role? I ask because I don't have a degree and am a bit nervous that my work visa will be rejected. Are there any roles that do not require a Degree?
If I was to change my title to that of a lower level, would there be issues in bringing over my family?
Thanks.

I am after a bit of advice if someone has recently moved to saudia Arabia from UK. I have had an offer letter which I have accepted and returned to the employer. The way they have explained me is the following but was hoping if anyone could add a bit of flavour I.e timescales things to watch out etc
I should get a contract which I will sign and return. They will then assign me a visa processing company who which process the visa on my behalf. When I arrive in SA I will then have to apply for iqama. Does anyone know what is actually involved in the visa process and how long it takes etc?
Hi
Working in KSA since mid of 2015 as Iqama profession like Computer Network Technician, now needs SCE required lot of formalities to change membership from temporary to permanent. I already raise a query to accomplish it. lets c.Â
