Are you thinking of going out of Saudi Arabia on a short trip? As a resident holding a good Iqama, you will need to obtain an Electronic Exit Re-Entry Visa (Single) to leave and come back home without problems.
Such a form of visa enables you to leave the Kingdom once and arrive back within the prescribed time limit, mostly not more than 60 days. Be it a dependent, a domestic worker, or one sponsored by the company, I have listed the best options to use: through Absher, Muqeem, or even at the Jawazat office (special cases).
In case you are interested in a quick, clear, and comprehensive solution to the issue, check or printing of your single exit re-entry visa, you are in the right place. Here goes!

Final Thoughts
As I stated above, I am Faisal, and I was the person who used the Absher method to apply for the visa for my client. It was fast, effective, and saved much of the time. As a sponsor, dependent, or employee, the process will be smooth under the above steps.
I would always advise that such kind of services be done through official means, such as Absher or Muqeem mechanisms. Use as little of an agent or third-party services as possible. The rest is to apply for your Single Exit Re-Entry Visa. Now that you have all the details, apply without a hassle.
In case you still have some problems, please contact the Jawazat helpline or visit their official website to get the most recent information.
