You are bit too late if you really want to go to Dubai next week because, regardless of your profession in the passport you will need pre approved Saudi Transit Visa which takes at-least a week to arrange and unfortunately you will have to do this through an agent. Saudi Embassy will not take any personal applications (my experience); they will ask you to contact an agent (the contact numbers are on the wall in the guard room). I got my Saudi Transit through an agent near BMW roundabout opposite Jabri Restaurant Mughlina. The visa is free, hoever; agent will charge you QR125 for each passport.
Goodluck and have a safe trip.
Can you please bring me my laptop back from a friend of mine in Dubai?
