With the growing workforce mobility under Saudi Vision 2030, companies like Alahad Group KSA play a vital role in facilitating legal, fast, and fully compliant employee transfers.

Understanding “Naqal Kafala” and Employee Transfer Services Saudi Arabia

Transferable Iqama:

Also known as “Naqal Kafala,” this allows an expatriate to change employers in Saudi Arabia. Not all Iqamas are transferable, and eligibility depends on factors like the employment contract, agreement between employers, and job category.

Process Overview:

The transfer involves securing a job offer from a new employer, obtaining approval (if required) from the current employer, initiating the transfer request via platforms like Qiwa or Absher, paying required fees, and completing all necessary documentation for MHRSD approval.

Role of Employee Transfer Services:

Companies specializing in Employee Transfer Services in Riyadh, Jeddah, and other Saudi cities can assist expatriates and employers in navigating this complex process, handling paperwork and ensuring compliance with regulations.

Key Requirements:

To transfer an Iqama, the worker typically needs a valid Iqama, must complete their probation period or contract term (unless exceptions apply), and fulfill any notice period mentioned in the employment contract.

Platforms Used:

The primary platform for managing Kafala transfers in Saudi Arabia is Qiwa, which streamlines the process of submitting transfer requests and managing documentation.

Importance of Employer Relations:

Maintaining positive relations with the current employer is crucial for a smooth transfer, as their consent may be required unless specific conditions for automatic transfer are met.
