Expats can bring family members to KSA for 3 months

Bangladeshi expatriates living in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) will be allowed to take their family members there for three months.

State Minister for Religious Affairs Md Faridul Haque Khan disclosed this information at the Secretariat on Wednesday.

Earlier, he met with a delegation led by the Saudi minister of Haj and Umrah Tawfik Al Rabiah.

The state minister said, "Those of us who are working in Saudi Arabia, can from now on take one or more of their family members there for a maximum of three months."

To make hajj management easier and more efficient, Tawfik Al Rabiah on behalf of Saudi Arabia will launch an app called 'Nusuk' in Dhaka on Thursday. The app is already operational in Europe and the US.
