How to Use the Jawazat Fine Calculator

Step 4: Select Additional Options

Check the box if you have an uncanceled exit/re-entry visa (additional SAR 1,000 fine). If you already paid part of the fine, enter the amount paid to see your remaining balance.

Understanding Your Jawazat Fine Results

The Jawazat (Saudi Passport Department) imposes fines for overstaying your Iqama or visa. For Iqama overstay, the first violation is a flat SAR 15,000 fine. The second violation is SAR 30,000, and third or subsequent violations are SAR 50,000 each, capped at SAR 100,000 per violation. For Exit/Re-Entry visa and Visit visa overstays, the fine is SAR 100 per day of overstay, capped at SAR 50,000 total. If you have an uncanceled Exit/Re-Entry visa that expired more than 90 days ago, an additional SAR 1,000 fine applies. The total fine is calculated by adding daily fines, flat penalties, and any unpaid balance after partial payment.

Real Example

Suppose your Iqama expired on January 1, 2026, and today is March 31, 2026 (90 days overstay), with no previous violations: Flat penalty (first violation): SAR 15,000 Total fine: SAR 15,000 Now suppose your Exit/Re-Entry visa expired on January 1, 2026, and today is April 15, 2026 (105 days): Daily fine: 105 × SAR 100 = SAR 10,500 Uncanceled visa fine (90+ days): SAR 1,000 Total fine: SAR 11,500 If your visit visa expired for the same period: Daily fine: 105 × SAR 100 = SAR 10,500 Capped at: SAR 50,000 (not exceeded) Total fine: SAR 10,500
