In order to avoid any potential delays with your government requests and/or visa applications, the Department of Government Affairs encourages you to submit all requests to GASC (Government Affairs Services Center) before July 21, 2012.
This is due to the Saudi government regulation of reduced working hours during the holy month of Ramadan, which is from July 20 to August 13. Accordingly, all requests and applications to Saudi government agencies, foreign embassies, and consulates will encounter delays during this period. Regular business hours will resume after Eid break on Saturday, August 25, 2012.
For more information, please email gasc@kaust.edu.saa or call 808 0970.
