We would like to inform you that the law regulating the entry and exit of foreigners stipulates that the employer shall hand over the passport and ID card after completion of the work permit procedures. He is not entitled to keep these documents. If he violates this, the employer shall pay a fine of not less than 25,000 riyals. Therefore, we recommend that you file a complaint against the employer at the labor office to take proper action against him.
