Change in Profession / MOFA Saudi Arabia not attesting the Contract

Hi, I am residing in KSA and working. I need occupation change.

For this I have two letters addressed to 1)Saudi Culture Pakistan and 2)Saudi Embassy in Pakistan (these two docs are attested by cambers).

My question is: Do I also require contract attested from MOFA (Foriegn Affairs Saudi Arabia) ?

I tried this but MOFA is not attesting the contract saying that it is not required as I already reside in the Kingdom. They attest it only for new comers to Saudi Arabia. Is this so? As My Agent in Pakistan is asking for this contract attested from MOFA.

Please help. Thanks.

Brother ,

if you want to change PROFESSION in your IQAMA , your sponsor can do it by labor office ( ON LINE SERVICE )

Yes you can try yourself but i dont know why mandoob came back with this lame excuse,may b he need service charges  :) .MOFA will definitely attest these letters.

Do you have IQAMA ? if yes , CHANGE PROFESSION only done by LABOR OFFICE.

Brother ,

Discuss with mandoob may be he needs service charges , other wise go by your self and i am sure will find answer , try to see offices near MOFA also you can ask them same in Jeddah city.
