Sorry can't help with specifics. Have a look on the walls for private tutor adverts, sometimes you can hit upon a good teacher. Just the information as supplied here. Sorry can’t help with specifics.

I just got it done today. I had gone on exit 3 months back. My license was valid. My friend in Dammam just filled a form and 400 riyals and he immidiately got the license , similarly my friend in riyad in the other dallah sulai and the other one they got it in the same way as well, I wnt to old dallah takhasusi first they said i will need to give a test and all that crap so i went to the other dallah filled the form and attached the iqama passport and old license but he looked at my file and said i need to go to old dallah, so next day(today) i went at 7:30, 1)filled the form form a guy in the boofia 2) took the file to building no.2 and went for the eye test guy he stamped 3) then the license check window where he put another stamp and ask me to get the test done 4)then there is a initial test to see if u know driving or not its opp to the main test area a guy with a car just asks u to move it ahead 20 meters and then reverse park, if u do it right he will put 3 crosses on the stamp 5) then u need to make the payment of 400 riyalas though bank i didnt had riyadh bank so i had to pay teh saudi guy 500 for the 400 riyal payment. 6) after that i went inside building no 1 and took a token number and wiatied i was told that i need to go to window no. 11 for transfer and cancel teh old one then i went there he took my old license attached it to teh file and fille din some data and took a printout and attached it with the file. then again i had to taker the token for the main window and wait for my turn then my number came and i submitted the applictaion and got the license in 10 mins Note: if u have a old valid saudi license u can get it transfered to ur new iqaama by giving just a simple test(its easy) extra and only in riyadh old dallah rest in dammam khobar, riyadh other dallas u need not give any test. Hope this is helpful for people All the best Mansoor Ali Baig I wanted to update u on the OLD SAUDI LICENSE TRANSFER.
I just got it done today.
I had gone on exit 3 months back.
My license was valid. My friend in Dammam just filled a form and 400 riyals and he immidiately got the license , similarly my friend in riyad in the other dallah sulai and the other one they got it in the same way as well, I wnt to old dallah takhasusi first they said i will need to give a test and all that crap so i went to the other dallah filled the form and attached the iqama passport and old license but he looked at my file and said i need to go to old dallah, so next day(today) i went at 7:30,
1)filled the form form a guy in the boofia
2) took the file to building no.2 and went for the eye test guy he stamped
3) then the license check window where he put another stamp and ask me to get the test done
4)then there is a initial test to see if u know driving or not its opp to the main test area a guy with a car just asks u to move it ahead 20 meters and then reverse park, if u do it right he will put 3 crosses on the stamp
5) then u need to make the payment of 400 riyalas though bank i didnt had riyadh bank so i had to pay teh saudi guy 500 for the 400 riyal payment.
6) after that i went inside building no 1 and took a token number and wiatied i was told that i need to go to window no. 11 for transfer and cancel teh old one then i went there he took my old license attached it to teh file and fille din some data and took a printout and attached it with the file. then again i had to taker the token for the main window and wait for my turn then my number came and i submitted the applictaion and got the license in 10 mins

Note: if u have a old valid saudi license u can get it transfered to ur new iqaama by giving just a simple test(its easy) extra and only in riyadh old dallah
rest in dammam khobar, riyadh other dallas u need not give any test.

It cost me 450 dhs return trip back to dubai. Am thinking to rent a car and drive myself for next month trip. Was told about the insurance. How much do we need really to pay just for the insurance itself? Thanks in advance for your reply. Just did the visa run last 2 days by taxi. It cost me 450 dhs return trip back to dubai.

As Muslims we do not want the non-Muslim world to express their sadness or shed their tears for Muslims killed. But we do want them to adhere to their own principles of justice. I don't think that is asking for much. To not do so is the real hypocrisy. We will shed our tears for our dead and you for yours but justice must be for both and in equal measure. Islam does not as a concept believe in a lesser human with his/her right to justice. Unlike some religion we have no gentiles to exploit. Justice is due to all. As for condemning something that is not right and wrong I have condemn and every common Muslim man and women condemns the murder of innocent men and women whether Jews, Christian, Hindu, Muslim, animist or secular. The sad reality on the account of tears are that the balance is in favour of those who are real and have a media presence while the faceless thousands who are killed among Muslim populations and others such as in Africa are mere statistics denegrated to the margins of some historians book yet to be published.

I wish it was as easy as saying that me and my kind were bigoted hypocrites but I am afraid the answer is not that easy. As for the other murders and any murder in the world whether Muslim or non-Muslim as a Muslim I categorically condemn. As a human my resources are limited and thus I cannot compose for every death, and as a poet I can only compose when moved by my inner voice. As for God (Arabic term Allah also used by Christian Arabs & Jews) He is akbar everywhere. Finally leaving your country, I am afraid the concept of the nation state as it stands is that the country is now ours and if I am obliged to leave so are you and if you have the right to stay so have I. Perhaps in cooler moments reflection will allow a better and more balanced response. Thanks for your comment.
