Thanks a lot for the prompt reply...

actually when i came on free visa here in ksa; by the grace of god i got the job within one month and company provided me offer letter which cosists of one page only; which shows salary details,probation period and vacation eligibility.....when i called to india for the purpose of saudi embassy attestation they mainly required contract letter (detailed) or offer letter (detailed) which should be complete with chamber of commerce and saudi culture on it...but my company today refused to provide offer letter by saying that am not under their sponsorship....

                 secondly, my kafeel(current sponsor) can provide me this contract letter but i as mentioned in my previous post about my iqama designation as Electrician and i have been working as a mechanical engineer in the consultant firm...and he doesn't have the category of mechanical engineer in his company...so can you please advise me if i want to go for attesation of my mechanical engineering degree then it will differ from electrician to engineer....waiting for your precious reply...thanks

You can still go ahead with the attestation, just ask your current sponsor to give you a contract with Mechanical Engineer title and tell him that this is only for document attestation purposes. Get it attested from Chamber and MOFA and you can use this for attesting the certificate.

If you are in Pakistan the contact details of the agents is in the previous posts. As to time frame depends on from where you have the certificate issued (Sindh, Punjab, Islamabad etc etc)

my degree is issued from university of punjab...can u tell me please that is there any attested letter require to attest ur degree from saudi cultural office and saudi consulate??

Letter attested from MOFA as far as I know is not available any more since MOFA refuses to give them now. Your best shot will be to get letter attested from Chamber of Commerce , and submit it along with Offer letter and employment contract signed and stamped from Chamber & MOFA.

Depends on the people there, and also as i said the certificate from where its issued. If all documents in order it will be attested by the embassy in two - three working days.

As far as I know only one letter is needed and not two letters. Perhaps there have been a new requirement.
