Working Visa Info

Next month I will move to Jeddah for work, I will come first on a visit visa until my permanent Visa is approved.

How long does the permanent Visa take to be approved? What could be the possible issues?

Depends on your company's nitqat, HR, passport dept guys...

And if you come during Ramadan and EID holidays (as it appears you may be doing) it will take longer.

I will have a visitor visa to start with I believe. What is the deal with this, it gives me 90 days but I can only work a maximum 30 days at a time? How long before I can return?

Every 29 days you'll need to exit the Kingdom

I think only for a weekend or even a day.
