Resident expatriates in Saudi Arabia require an exit re-entry visa in order to leave the kingdom temporarily. Exit re-entry visas are issued electronically through the Absher or Muqeem. There are two types of exit re-entry visas in the kingdom:
(1) Single Exit Re-Entry Visa
Single exit re-entry visas allow residents to leave and re-enter the kingdom only once. The visa holder is required to return to the kingdom before the visa expires. A single exit reentry visa costs SR 200 for two months and SR 100 for each additional month.
(2) Multiple Exit Re-Entry Visa
This type of visa allows visa holders to leave and re-enter the country many times throughout the duration of the visa. For those who frequently travel outside the kingdom, the multiple exit re-entry visa is ideal. Multiple exit re-entry visas cost SR 500 for the first three months and SR 200 for each extra month.
