Is it allowed for an Indian to change job and go directly from Doha to Saudi on work or business visa, without going to India?

Is the Qatari driving license can be used in Saudi.

thanks.

Yes, no problems at all. But, sure, you have to go to India to get your Saudi Employment Visa endorsed at their consulate in Mumbai or their Embassy in N. Delhi; depending upon where it is sent by your prospective Saudi employer. And then, there is this Medical Report that you have to get from within India. The Driving License ofcourse can be converted to Saudi Licence as long as your Qatari Licence has a validity when you are applying for a change.

Normally, the Saudi visa is sent to the Embassy of KSA in the country of origin , in your case High commission at Bombay. Hence you will have to go to India to get it stamped and getting your medical checkup done before going to Saudi.

I am giving you this info based on a freinds case last month.

To change job from Doha - Saudi is almost same procedure like you must have SAUDI VISA along with Employment Letter, Attested Degrees etc.

While, i believe just like if you have UAE DL, you can get it changed with QATAR DL. So, i hope same case will be with Saudi DL.
