Recruit Filipino Workers for Saudi Arabia

Fil-Expat helps Saudi employers recruit qualified Filipino professionals and skilled workers through a structured recruitment process. We align candidate screening with the approved profession, Saudi work permit requirements, and the Philippine deployment process.

Hiring Filipino Workers for Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia requires Ministry approval for the recruitment and employment of non-Saudi workers. The worker must have a valid work permit, the correct profession, and a written employment contract. Separate licences can also apply to regulated occupations.

Core Work and Migration Requirements
  • The employer must have the required approval to recruit a non-Saudi worker.
  • The worker must enter Saudi Arabia legally and hold the correct work authorization.
  • The worker must be under contract with and under the responsibility of an employer.
  • The employment contract for a non-Saudi worker must be written and fixed term under Saudi labour rules.
  • The profession stated in the work permit must match the work the employee performs. A formal process is required before the profession can be changed.
  • The worker must have the professional competencies, academic qualifications, or worker classification required for the approved role.
  • A Saudi work permit does not replace a professional licence required by another authority.
  • Employer eligibility is also affected by Saudization and other labour market rules that apply to the company and occupation.
Qualification and Professional Requirements

Fil-Expat reviews the candidate against the exact Saudi profession before endorsement. We check work history, competencies, qualifications, and available licences. For healthcare and other regulated professions, we identify the separate registration or licensing process that applies to the role.

Philippine Recruitment and Deployment Requirements

The Saudi employment process must also connect with the Philippine overseas recruitment process. Fil-Expat supports employer accreditation, job order documentation, employment contract review, candidate processing, medical and pre-departure requirements, and Department of Migrant Workers clearance before deployment.
