Dear Thouseef,

Thank you for reaching out.

Regarding your inquiry about changing the profession on your Iqama from "Foundation Digger" to "Engineer," here is the latest information:

As of now, the process of changing Iqama profession is still active, but it is subject to certain conditions and approvals by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD) and Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE) 鈥� especially for engineering professions.

Here's what you need to know:

鉁� To change to an Engineering Profession:

You must be registered with the Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE):

Visit:

Submit your engineering degree, attested by the Saudi Embassy and MOFA.

Pay the registration fees and complete the verification process.

Your sponsor/employer must submit a request to change the profession via the Qiwa or Absher Business portal.

Approval must come from MHRSD. In some cases, profession changes for labor or construction roles (like foundation digger) are restricted, but engineering roles are typically approved if SCE registration is complete.

鈿狅笍 Rumors about cancellation:

There have been rumors that the profession change service is cancelled 鈥� this is not officially confirmed. Some professions are restricted from changing, but engineers are generally allowed if the proper requirements are met.

馃搶 Recommendation:

Speak to your company鈥檚 HR or PRO and ask them to initiate the process via Qiwa. Ensure your SCE registration is completed before they do so.

If you need help registering with SCE or with document attestation, I can guide you.

Best regards,

Asif Sharaf
