Correction to Moody's answer; you will require a pre-arranged transit visa for Saudi Arabia through an agent regardless of your profession mentioned in Qatar ID.

You do NOT get the Transit Visa at the border as some guy answered you.

What if your Qatar ID doesn't say what your profession is? What do you need instead in order to cross border?

Hi,

As long as your profession is mentioned in your ID as Engineer so there is absolutely no problem to just go ahead even no need for Saudi Transit Visa it will be granted at boarder, regarding the vehicle only need to keep a valid ID car ownership card and that's it, have a nice trip.
