Hi thank you

Good morning, just want to make sure I understand you. Are you saying you have a one year residency visa now? If so, I was able to fly out and back with no issues when I got my first year visa. Then I applied for another visa which is 10 years for anyone over the of 18. I fly many times and come back. We live in Morocco majority of the time. Sometimes during winter or summer break we may go some place for a couple of weeks or months then come back home with no issues. I hope this answered your questions.

hi Is that a residents card  is what I have but I think iI seen has long has you don’t stay out of the country Mrs than three months

I have to do my tax in uk and my family run my business there so I need to check on them 2/3 times a year they never told me what you are able to do but we are in the 21st century so I think a lot French people with business and resident card here would be able to travel too

I’ve stayed out longer than three months at a time. From my understanding an iqama can one, three, and 10 years so as long as it’s in good standing it shouldn’t be a problem for you. As an American my first iqama was one year. I applied again and got one for 10 years and have traveled in and out between two weeks and six months at a time. Upon my arrival back immigration just asks for my national residency card and that’s it.
