Driver Iqama Renewal

Renew a private driver's iqama before it expires.

Renewing the iqama of a private driver or domestic worker is one of the transactions sponsors most often delay, because several conditions must be met at once: a valid passport, paid government fees, no violations or reports on the worker, and sometimes updated Absher data. Missing any of these stops the renewal and can lead to late penalties. At Tasami we first review the iqama status with you, explain what is missing, then follow the renewal steps on Absher Individuals until the new iqama is issued, all in simple language over WhatsApp.
