Saudi Passports Directorate details online iqama renewal via Absher

The General Directorate of Passports has launched an online service allowing expatriates outside Saudi Arabia to renew their iqama (residency permit) through the Absher platform.

The service also enables the easy online renewal of iqama for dependents of expatriates and domestic workers.

To renew the iqama for domestic workers, users should first log in to the Absher website, navigate to Resident Services, select Labor Services, choose the relevant beneficiary, and then select Renew Iqama.

For dependents, users must log in to Absher, go to Family Member Services, select Resident Services, identify the beneficiary, and choose the iqama to be renewed.
