Huroob means you have been absent from work without your supervisor’s permission. If your supervisor files a huroob report against you, you can find out by going to the Ministry of Labor website and enter your iqama number. If your employer reported you as huroob, you should see a message about it when you log in.

Go to the Absher.sa website and click the “Individual” button. Register if you haven’t already done so, then log in. From there, you should be able to view information about your iqama, including the expiry date.

If your employer doesn’t renew your iqama on time, they will be fined double the standard iqama fees. If you fail to prove that you hold a current iqama, you may be fined 1000 S.R. for the first instance, 2000 for the second, and 3000 for the third.

How do I find my Iqama number?

Community Answer

There will be a 10-digit numeric combination on the Iqama card. It may be at the bottom centre of the front page or below your picture. This is your Iqama number.

Question

Can I transfer to another company without my company's permission?

Abdul Samad Essani

Community Answer

No, without your company permission you can't transfer. However, if your company is in Red Nitaqat status, that's the only way you can transfer without company permission.
