Assalamo alaikum wr wb
Dear Team,
I am a consultant and my engagements bring me to Saudi Arabia often. At times I am here for three to six months at a stretch.
Can anyone guide me on how or where to open a bank account. I am on a business visa.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Jazakallah-e-khair
Mohammed Aala

You need to have Iqama in order to open an account. People on any kind of visit visas can't have bank accounts.

Without Iqama, literally nothing is possible in KSA
