What Is a Saudi Arabia General Manager Visa?
A Saudi Arabia General Manager visa is a work visa for business owners, investors, or appointed managers opening a company in Saudi Arabia.
Unlike a standard work visa sponsored by an existing employer, this visa is connected to the applicant’s own Saudi company after incorporation. It allows the applicant to enter Saudi Arabia, obtain an Iqama, and act as the authorised General Manager of the business.
Because the process involves both company setup and visa requirements, the application must be carefully prepared to avoid inconsistencies between the company documents, visa authorisation, applicant details, and supporting evidence.
