            Brother Esrar khan, is it compulsory to go the last date, I mean on the date when visa is going to be expired? or we can go before that and get extension which is less risky approach, Will they (Jawazat) deal people before expiry date or simply refusing and saying not allowed, and saying come on the last date/ visa expiry date?

          • shijina

            July 9, 2017 at 10:46 am

            No you can go early also. But it depends on certain officers as there is huge rush after the reopening. Alhamdulillah I got it extended today though my expiry date was on 12th. For some people who had expiry on 10th they told to come tomorrow. You go early before opening of jawazat around 4:30am and get your name written there ,they are calling in that order for appointment.

      The total Visit Visa period should not exceed the permitted period of 180 days from the date of entry into KSA & the visit visa extension period will be same as initial issuance period.

    Hi My iqama is going to expire in Jan but my family visit visa will be expiring in Dec and i want to extend their visit visa for another three months. So is it possible to extend family visit visa out side the limit of my iqama validity date?.Your prompt response will be highly appreciating.
