The Saudi government has begun the process of refunding the fees of canceled work visas. Work visas issued to hundreds of foreigners have been revoked since the royal decree of March 18. According to details provided by the Gulf News Agency, the Saudi Ministry of Manpower, with the assistance of the Foreign Ministry, has begun the process of refunding visa fees to all foreigners whose work visas have been revoked. ۔

Foreigners were barred from entering Saudi Arabia last month due to the spread of the coronavirus. A royal decree was also issued in this regard. Under the order, visas issued to hundreds of foreigners around the world seeking employment in Saudi Arabia were revoked. Canceled visas also include visas that have been stamped. It has been informed that all the foreigners whose work visas were canceled in the light of the royal decree dated March 18 will be refunded the visa fee. The foreigners affected by the Saudi government's decision will get their visa fees back, but they have apparently lost their jobs.
