How to Check Sponsor Name and Sponsor ID in Saudi Arabia?

The Kafala (sponsorship) system is used by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) to control the employment of foreign workers. Any foreign national looking for work in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia needs to have a kafeel, or sponsor, who could be a business or a Saudi national.

A written employment contract is required for all foreign employees. Important information including the length of employment, pay, Iqama cost, medical benefits, and vacation time should all be included in this contract. Throughout the duration of the contract, the sponsor is in charge of the sponsored employee.

As a foreign employee in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, you are required to obtain express consent from your employer for a number of activities, such as coming into or going out of the nation and changing jobs. Everyday activities often require your sponsor’s name and ID, so knowing how to verify this information is crucial.

Understanding the Sponsor ID on Saudi Arabian Visas

Every business entity is given a Sponsor ID, or unique identification number, by the Ministry of Labor in Saudi Arabia. This 10-digit code is essential for locating sponsors of the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

In order to obtain the Iqama card (residence and work permit), check the status of their visa, renew their driver’s license, open bank accounts, and keep track of the expiration dates of their medical insurance, expatriates need the Sponsor ID for a number of reasons.

Can You Check Your Kafeel Name on the Iqama?

Expatriates can find their sponsor’s name and Sponsor ID through different sources:

Checking Sponsor ID through the Passport: The Sponsor ID is available on the stamped KSA visa page in your passport. Look at the fifth line from the right, where you’ll find the 10-digit sponsor ID. It might be in Arabic, so translation assistance may be needed.

Checking Kafeel Name and Sponsor ID through Absher: You need to be logged into an Absher account in order to view your sponsor ID in the KSA. This account can be used for a number of things, including renewing driver’s licenses, applying for exit/re-entry visas, and verifying Iqama expiration dates. Create an Absher account on the website by entering your username, password, mobile number, Iqama number, and language. Your account will be activated following an SMS code verification process. To locate your Absher sponsor ID:

Log in to your Absher account.
Go to the “Dashboard” and click on “More Detail.”
You’ll find your Kafeel’s name and ID among other information.

Checking Sponsor ID through the Ministry of Labour (MOL) Website: By entering your Iqama number and name on the Ministry of Labour website, you can find your sponsor’s name and ID. This method can also be used to check the status of your Iqama transfer request.

Checking the Sponsor Colour Category

The Saudization rate of your employer’s business is reflected in the Sponsor Color, also known as Nitaqat Color. This color category affects a variety of things, including resumes, visa transfers, and Iqama renewals. By entering your passport number, residency number, and nationality on the Ministry of Labour website, you can find the color category for your company. Among the categories are:

Red: Low Saudization, limited benefits.

Yellow: Slightly better than red, with specific visa issuance conditions.

Green: Better Saudization, allowing Iqama renewal every two months and job changes.

Green or Platinum: The most desirable category, allowing more foreign worker hires and hassle-free visa transfers and job changes.

Comprehending the Kafala system and its fundamental details is imperative for foreign laborers operating in Saudi Arabia, guaranteeing a more seamless experience while navigating the nation’s job market.
