Please anyone help me for this?

Thanks in advance.

Depends on the visa he is on.  If he is on a business visa, he can apply for an escort visa to have him accompany you.  Otherwise, his company can apply for a standard visit visa for you.  In both cases, his company needs to help guide you.

Thank you Xtang.....
He is on the business Visa.
What is the requirements for applying escort visa and standard visa??? Can both visa's is applied without iqama certificate???

Madam,
    your husband's company visa agents would be able to suggest better suited to your case. in case they are not supportive enough, you need to catch hold of a saudi visa agents in India [lot of them in delhi & mumbai] who will arrange for self sponsored escort visa for spouses on business visa. I believe there are further divisions in it like single entry & multiple entry visa and these visa duration will be given based on your husband's visa validity period. escort visa can be applied without iqama and marriage certificate, his visa copy, invitation letter from his company are the documents i heard of from my visa consultancy. 
standard visa i am not sure how to bring spouses.

there could be more complications based on your info which says there has been a rejection, so best advice is to consult a paid visa service agency. there are multiple agencies, go with trusted & which has good ratings.

FYI: i am not a visa expert. my suggestions are based on few of my inquiries i have done to bring my family.

Yep.  You need someone to guide you on this i.e. your husband's company.  Depending on your country, both visas may need letter of invitation from your husbands country (escort visa usually doesn't but for some countries, it is still required).

For visa details, check on the VFS Tahseel site for your country.  Go to:

Choose your country and browse the different types of visas for documents, fees and process.

Thank you sir.

Hello

If my husband's iqama is rejected for one profile then can employer of my husband filed iqama for another profile?  If they does, then how much time to get the iqama.

What do you mean by profile?   Rejection is for individual and there is no such thing as a profile.

Can they re apply for iqama??

You have to understand the process:

Employer applies for a work visa
Employee gets work visa stamped and enters Kingdom
Employee does medical and employer uploads insurance
Iqama is issued

So it is a visa you apply for.  And if rejected, yes you can apply again.  But each rejection makes it tougher to get.

Hello

Can anyone tell me about Saudi tourist visa which is permitted recently by the kingdom of Saudi?


Thanks in advance

Hello sir

Can you tell me about Saudi Arabia sharek visa which is permitted recently by the kingdom?

Please help me out.

Thanks in advance.

The reason no one is responding to you is because no one has an idea.  The sharek and tourist visa are two very different things.  The sharek visa is a 14 day visa for attending sporting events.  And you only get it if you purchase the tickets for the said event e.g. F1.

The tourist visa is another 14 day visa but even though it has been approved, no official date for it's application has been announced.

Thank you sir

Please can you help me what we do if iqama is not applied from his company.....is there some other options to join my husband as soon...? Bcos I m very worried now. It's almost 4 months now. I want to join my husband as soon as possible....if is there any option to get my own business Visa .....?? But how i apply job .

Please help me out.


Thanks in advance

You can join him on a visit visa which can be issued by his company.  You can stay up to 6 months on it before exiting.

Hello

But I think visit Visa is not allowed in Saudi Arabia without getting iqama. If it do so then how to do.... please let me know

It is allowed.  If your husband has an Iqama, he / his company can sponsor a family visit visa for you.  And if he doesn't have an Iqama, his company can still provide a business visit visa IF they agree to do that.  Otherwise no option but to wait.

It is valid for me... business visit visa?? On this visa, how many days I will stay there.?

As I said, IF your husband company is supporting that, you can potentially get one - they will get one for you while pretending that you are there on business.  Not fully legal but companies do it.  You, on your own, simply cannot get a business visit visa.   And there is NO way to get one without involving your husband's company.

The second option is an escort visa which depends on what type of visa your husband entered the Kingdom on.  I would advise to find an agent in your home country to advise you or to look on VFS Tahseel site for your country.   People have told you this before as well.

Irrespective of everything, your husbands NEEDS to talk to his sponsor to find the right option for you.

Just try to understand, outside of the above two options as well as the family visit visa for Iqama holders, there is NO way for you to come to Saudi.  Asking the same question again and again will not change the answers.

Ok thanks

Hello sir,


Can anyone tell me about iqama for spouse?
My husband got iqama. So can my husband apply my iqama from India and can I travel along with my husband?

yes, once your husband gets iqama he has 2 options (min) to bring to ksa, either on visit visa or family visa.

Step 1: he need to fill this form https://visa.mofa.gov.sa/FamilyVisitVisa to request for family invitation. this is in arabic, use chrome to translate to english, few dropdown values will be not working properly at times, keep trying again and occasionally everything works. he need to take print out of this form and his employer has to approve and get Chamber of commerce approval.

Step 2: he has 2 options to bring u to ksa. 1) on visit visa or on 2) iqama (family visa). both has its own pros and cons. iqama he has bear monthly 200 riyal per head as dependent fee but if u are planning long term in ksa and if u are searching for schooling in ksa if u have a child then this option is better. 2nd option on visit visa has a negativity wherein u need to travel out of country and reenter after 6 months and there is some coordination and fee required for renewal and also insurance has to be borne. so some cumborsome process every time when there is expiry date. decide which option works for your family best, visit visa or family visa

step 3 :his invitation from step 1 needs to be provided to indian agent for either of  visit visa or family visa. it takes approx 1 week for endorsement. FYI: better to do marriage certificate attestation and attestation of childs birth certificate if there are any concerns of name mismatch etc on passports.

all the best.

Thanks sir

I want to know that can my husband file my iqama on my own without his iqama bcos his company doesn't processed his iqama...he is only on business Visa....can he do so....? Nd can he filed my iqama with the help of his company letter....if yes then what are required documents??? And also the processing time?

No he cannot.  He can only sponsor you for an Iqama if he ALSO has an Iqama.
