Iqama Expiry & Khuruj Awda (খুরুজ আওদা) Checker
Enter your Iqama expiry date to see remaining validity, and estimate dependent levy costs. Saudi Iqama dates follow the Umm al-Qura Hijri calendar — always verify on Absher.
About this tool
Enter an Iqama or exit-reentry date and see how many days remain, whether your passport and Iqama expiry windows overlap, and when renewal paperwork should start — with the grace-period rules that apply in Saudi Arabia. Everything runs in your browser — your numbers never leave this device.
The most expensive date to forget
An iqama expiry is the single most costly date to miss in Saudi Arabia: working even a short time past expiry brings heavy fines for both you and your employer, and repeated lapses can end a residence career entirely. Pair the check above with a phone reminder two to three months before expiry, because renewals go through your employer's HR or mandoub and can take several weeks.
Keep copies of your passport data page, the iqama itself and your latest contract in one phone folder. Welfare and labour disputes move much faster when you can produce clean documents on the spot.
Frequently asked questions
How early can I renew my Iqama?
Renewals are typically opened by your employer or sponsor in the final months of validity, and late renewals accrue daily penalties after the grace period. Start the paperwork as soon as the window opens.
What is khuruj awda (exit-reentry)?
It is the exit-reentry visa that lets you leave Saudi Arabia and return on the same Iqama. Overstaying a single or multiple-entry khuruj awda cancels the Iqama and triggers re-entry bans.
