I am not sure of they can do that there. If they can then that's great. Maybe someone can answer that part better. Good luck in any case.

Dear Noisy
My employer asked me to get my academic certificates attested from UAE Foreign Affairs...how can I do it here in Saudi Arabia.

The process is slightly different. The employer should file a petition with the Ministry of Labor for you and get their approval. The Dubai Immigration will issue an employment visa in the country which can be either sent to you with FedEx or the employer can send you a scan, while the actual visa will be held for you at the Visa Delivery Counter at Dubai Airport. The rest is simple. You get to Dubai and pick up the visa at the airport before passport control.

1. My new employer in UAE will process my visa there in UAE, while I will keep staying in KSA
2. Once the new employer completes processing visa I will go to UAE embassy Riyadh and get my passport stamped
3. After visa stamping, I reach UAE and get the IQama there

This is my understanding, what is your input on this Noisy?

UAE cae if far different than KSA, here sponser will raise your visa and send you the copy of that and you can enter in UAE base on that piece of paper.

I have both, Saudi and UAE residencies.

Hi I'm and indian Guy with a UAE residence permit and trying on getting a KSA residence as well my employers have no issues with me having 2 residency permits.. but the PRO informed that it is not possible... can you please advice if there is some specific route to be followed to have both residencies on the passport.

Looking forward to your response.
