Check Exit Visa Saudi Arabia:

Generally, visa means a permit to enter a country for a specific purpose. But when we talk about Saudi Arabia the visa has two meanings. The first is a permit to enter and the second is a permit to exit. It means, if you are an expat in Saudi Arabia, you generally need an exit visa to leave the Kingdom. Since the March 2021 Labor Reform Initiative, most private-sector workers can issue their own exit/re-entry and final exit visas through Absher without their employer’s approval. This name of this permission is “exit visa” or “Final exit visa”.  Some countries including Saudi Arabia still have this law which is totally against basic human right and freedom. No one like the condition of obtaining exit visa because Saudi Arabian Kafeel often use such laws to exploits workers.
