SIM Card without Iqama
XTang wrote:You can get a SIM card after showing your passport (with the Saudi visa). They will register it under the entry number (written by hand on top of your visa on first entry by the immigration officer after fingerprinting and photo) as opposed to Iqama number for residents. You can get it from any of the three providers i.e. STC, Mobily and Zain.
Thank you for the information! I was able to get it through a larger STC store today. Yesterday I went to a smaller Mobily store and they couldn't do it. Thankfully the problem is solved. Thank you for all the help
