I am working in Saudi Arabia on company visa in a private construction company, I am working as an assistant engineer civil, but the title on my iqama is Labor. I have three years diploma of associate engineer in civil attested in Saudi embassy from Pakistan. So I want to know can I change my profession to sub-engineer/junior-engineer/or assistant-engineer on the basis of my three years diploma, if it is possible what will be the procedure. I already got approval from my GR office to change my profession in iqama, so they give me suggestion that if I want to fanny-technician then the proceed but if I need assist engineer then I need to enter my data in SEC website.


Plz give me suggestion what I do.

Brother you can change your profession to Technician(Fani) but you can not change to Engineer,for engineer profession Saudi Engineering Council membership is must and SCE minimum requirement is 4 Years Degree.

Even if you will enter your data to the Saudi Council you will not fit or qualified because you are 3 years Associate only.

Dear brothers

I want to change the profession on my iqama as an Engineer.
My degree is not attested with Saudi Culture and Saudi Embassy, but I am already a member of Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE). Can I pursue my change of profession on the basis of my Saudi Council Membership? or is it compulsory to get my degree attested first?
