RIYADH: Saudi Arabia has introduced a three-month temporary work visa that is issued immediately without docu-ments, according to the Qiwa platform.
The visa enables enterprises to issue a temporary work visa whereby the holder can work for three months from the entry date, a labour portal has said.
This visa, which can be extended for a similar period, allows the holder to work for a specific period without the need to issue work permit and residency.
The request for the visa must be submitted by the business owner or a commissioner on Qiwa business, Gulf News reported.
Qiwa is an electronic platform giving access to the Ministry of Human Resources’ different services in the labour sec-tor.
Regulations for the temporary work visa service require that the enterprise must be active and have a valid commer-cial registration except for the activities that do not require commercial registration.
Moreover, the enterprises under the same unified number must not have any expired work permit, and have suffi-cient credit in the national unified number of the enterprise on the Absher account. The temporary work visa is issued immediately through Qiwa and does not require any documents. –Agencies
