Good day. I am a teacher and received an offer from Saudi Arabia. I am really looking forward to it the only problem I am having is the issue of a visa for my husband. My main question is Does Saudi provide a visa for the husband on a wife's iqama?
I will really appreciate all responds
Thanks

It should state it in the contract, check with the school if they will allow

This is what the school says : they hold no responsibility or give any promises in this regard. Granting a family visa is a sovereign issue related to the Saudi laws and regulations

Other then the other

It will depends on your qualifications and your sponsor.

Sadly,,,, most teacher couldn't (hopefully it has changed)

Sure
You should have a valid visa from the MoFA as a teacher by profession. And your hubby can come as a "MEHRAM".

But he can not work legally.
