Transfer sponsorship from government hospital to private hospital

Post new topic

Apple MG

My contract is ending soon and although they have given me extension of contract in my current employme, I have decided not to renew it.

I am working as a lab technician in a government hospital in najran and planning to transfer to riyadh. About the abolishment of kafala system, are government hospitals included or it exclusive for private hospitals only?

The private hospital that I have applied to is asking for release. Is NOC and release certificate the same?

Is NOC enough for the private hospital to transfer my sponsorship with this current labor law?

Please help me. 🙏 Thanks a lot!

Has anyone got an answer for this question?
A friend of mine has the same problem. The job they are doing is under Saudisation, they have an offer from a private hospital but cannot find an answer on how to transfer their Iqama. The only solution at the moment appears to be to leave the Kingdom return home and come back on a new visa and Iqama.

Thanks for your response. The big problem is that they don't give visas anymore for expats in my profession, so the only way is to do local transfer. I've heard that it will take atleast 6 mos for the iqama to transfer from government to private if it gets approved. It is indeed too risky.

Hi good morning .. we have sane case dear . Did you get any update ? Did you transfer your sponsorship successfully? Kindly update us please .Godbless you

Hi :) it's possible but it takes some wasta or guys who know how to work on this thing. I just finished the iqama transfer process from govt. to a private company and it took me almost a month. The process must be done manually ( the new company reps. must go to Maktaba office and bring NOC from your company address to MOL and Jawazat) . There are some offices in front of MOL in morsalat and they can help you to process it.
