In Saudi Arabia, expatriates' Iqama numbers are used to carry out all official transactions. Iqama No. Transport challan or other violations are registered.
The Permits Agency is responsible for handling the residence affairs of foreigners. The issuance and renewal of Iqams is done by the licensing authority.
Regarding the traffic challan, a person inquired, 'Worker's iqama is a traffic challan, can the iqama be renewed?'
Regarding the traffic violations, Juzaat said that 'timely payment of the challan is necessary, in case of non-payment, the iqama cannot be renewed nor can other official matters be carried out'.
It should be noted that in Saudi Arabia, all official matters are connected with the Iqama number. Any type of violation or challan is registered on Iqama number only.
In the event of a challan, it is automatically fed into the juristic system and the foreigner's Iqama violation is recorded until the challan is paid.
In addition to the challan registered for traffic violations, non-payment of non-payment of Iqama, exit and promise etc. cannot be issued.
A person inquired from Jazaat, 'I have bought installments and the money is left, can the exit be applied?'
In this regard, Juzaat said that the non-exit visa cannot be issued until the goods purchased in installments are paid.
It should be noted that in terms of payment, if someone has bought a vehicle in installments or is responsible for mobile, internet, electricity bill, etc., he will not be issued a final exit visa.
A final exit visa requires no outstanding debts. In case of outstanding payments, they are registered in the foreign worker's file and the exit ban cannot be applied until all payments are completed. The vehicle should not be canceled in his name. A final exit visa can be applied only after the vehicle is sold or transferred to another person and not before.
