Hi, I'm from Tamil Nadu, India. And I have a job offer from Saudi Arabia. Visa is in stamping stage. Could anyone please tell me how many days needed for saudi work visa stamping. Because its been 20 days since I applied. And I check it on mofa website. It shows my details without visa number which means visa not stamped yet. I'm little bit worried about delay in stamping.

hey, Buna !! i am patricia , from Romania/Ireland living in khobar/dammam!
Anyone around hit me up happy to connect
have a good day

Hi,

My name is Kassi, I'm 52 and I live in the UK (I am Canadian however) I am married to Mac who currently is working for BAE in KSA- we are discussing moving over but I am worried about things like our pets and what I might do for work. I'm currently self employed as a hair and makeup artist in the UK so not sure how that would translate over to Saudi. Im hoping to gather lots of info before deciding if this is the correct move for myself.

thanks

Hi, I'm Islam from Egypt, born in Yemen and raised in Saudi Arabia, my family and I lived in Mecca for 14 years, then back to Egypt. Now, I'm a Science/Physics teacher at an international school at Al Ahsa, a city near Dammam. I'd be happy to make some friends, sharing the same hobbies which are Chess, food, and language learning. I seek learning German or strengthen my English language. Thanks.

Good day,

First and foremost, I will keep it as short and sweet as possible.

I am looking for projects where expats are needed for sales or account managing in climate regulation. Projects and networking would be much oblidged.

Comming from The Netherlands, we have the best advanced climate regulation in cooling and heating ( I doubt heating will be an issue haha).

Networking, ideas, sparring I am all in.

@Julien HELLO

@Julien  Hi am Siddharth from India, Chennai. I am moving to Riyadh in Jan 2023. Would be working for an MNC in IT as Engineer. Need some help in finding accommodation. Thanks.

@Julien Hi,

I am Shafraz from the beautiful island called Sri Lanka. I have relocated to Khobar recently and will be settled here for next 15 months with my family insha allah.

I have been outsourced as a ServiceNow Consultant for an Aramco JV Company (cannot reveal the name publicly) for a project assignment.

I am an outgoing person who love to connect with people, learn new culture, language, skills while enjoying at best.

Apart from my works, I am happy to spend time in Reading, Cycling and Exploring Perfumes.

Fortunately, I am not in any social media and therefore, I always love to interact with "real people" :-)

Welcome on board Shafraz !

Hope you will enjoy the forum and Khobar !

Feel free to participate on recent threads of the Khobar forum to interact with members.

All the very best,

Bhavna

Hi everyone , this is Muhammad Max, I am from Bangladesh  and I am a  writer ,happy to be here , I wrote a book about Saudi Arabia , but I don't know how to promote it, the book is all about Saudi contributions  across the globe .please help me .

Hello Muhammad Bin Abdullah,

Welcome on board and congrats for your book.

Well, the forum is free from advertising, I don't really see how you can promote your book. Get in touch with the advertising department, maybe they have a solution, though, I am not sure : https://www.expat.com/en/advertisement.html

Hi!

We are a British family of 4 (daughter age 11 and son age 9) moving to Riyadh next Spring around April/May time. We have lived in Dammam when the kids were younger so know and love KSA. I would like to join this forum for up to date tips on things to do in Riyadh with kids now they are a bit older. We currently live in Las Vegas so are used to hot weather and plenty of outdoor activities. We will be enrolling in BISR in February for the August intake and are looking to live on the Antara Compound.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks!

@RenishPatel
