How to Get an Ajeer Permit in Saudi Arabia: Step-by-Step Employer Guide
The correct sequence begins with service eligibility and verified company and worker data—not with sending an employee to the client site before approval.
The central Ajeer rule for this topic
Ajeer is not a blanket permission to place any employee at any site. The supplier, beneficiary, worker, occupation, work location, assignment period and supervision model must match the selected service and approved record.
The correct sequence begins with service eligibility and verified company and worker data—not with sending an employee to the client site before approval.
Four controls employers should settle first
Validate data
Check establishment, beneficiary, employee, Iqama, occupation, work location and requested duration information.
Submit and accept
Complete the applicable platform request and beneficiary acceptance steps.
Deploy after approval
Reconcile the issued permit with the roster before site access or work begins.
Step 1: define the real assignment
Write the service, beneficiary establishment, worksite, task group, occupation, start and end dates, shift, supervisor and reason for temporary deployment. This prevents the team from choosing a permit category because its name sounds convenient while the operational facts describe a different arrangement.
Step 2: check companies and worker data
Confirm that the provider and beneficiary can use the selected service and that their official records are current. Review the worker's identity, Iqama and work-permit status, occupation and other data requested by the platform. A mismatch should be corrected through the responsible channel before a deployment promise is made.
Step 3: complete the official workflow
HRSD's service guidance describes logging in through Qiwa or National Access, opening the permits area, selecting the temporary-work route, entering worker and assignment information, sending the request and completing beneficiary approval where applicable. Interface labels and requirements can change, so follow the live platform rather than a screenshot from an old article.
Step 4: issue, verify and control the permit
After approval, save the official permit reference, check every field and connect it to the commercial contract, employee communication, site-access list and roster. Create alerts for the end date and assign an owner for changes, cancellation, renewal questions and assignment closure.
How this page fits the Ajeer cluster
This article focuses on a controlled permit-preparation and submission workflow. It should be read with the main 2026 Ajeer rules pillar, which explains the wider supplier, beneficiary, employee, temporary-permit, supervision and sponsorship-transfer framework.
The same facts should not be published as multiple city or industry pages with only names changed. Each implementation page must reflect the real service demand, sites, roles, risks and operating controls of its property.
