Question 1

Does Saudi Arabia accept the Hague apostille?

Question 2

What is Mohesr equivalency?

Accepted Answer

Saudi Ministry of Education's foreign-degree equivalency, mandatory for medical, engineering and academic roles. Without Mohesr equivalency the work-permit (Block Visa) cannot be issued through Qiwa.
