5
Documentation and deployment coordination

Saudi recruitment compliance
Saudi Embassy guidance for accredited recruitment agencies covers working-visa procedures and documentation, including matching the profession on the work visa and employment contract, medical certification through accredited medical centers, and authentication of relevant educational and experience certificates. ELB uses employer-approved role requirements and the applicable Philippine and Saudi documentation processes as the basis for recruitment coordination.
Sourcing, selected workers or visas already available?
For a Saudi manpower request, tell ELB which stage your project has reached. A sourcing request needs clear role criteria and interview availability. A selected-worker request needs a role summary, current worker locations and agreed terms. A request with visas available needs the visa categories and quantities for comparison with the planned jobs.
Connect the requirement to the Saudi worksite and industry: construction engineers, industrial welders, installation electricians, or hospitality and logistics teams. For larger requirements, separate the headcount and arrival priorities by occupation and site.

How Saudi employers hire Filipino workers
Outside a narrow set of exemptions, a Saudi employer hires Filipino workers through a DMW-licensed Philippine recruitment agency, and the employer must itself be accredited with the Migrant Workers Office (MWO) covering its region before a job order can be processed.
ELB handles the Philippine side of that workflow: employer accreditation coordination, job order and documentation steps, candidate sourcing and screening, interview coordination, and pre-departure processing. On the Saudi side, your company or its licensed Saudi recruitment partner handles the block visa issued through the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, employment contract authentication, visa stamping, and the Iqama residence permit after arrival. ELB does not operate those Saudi systems and does not act as a Saudi-licensed recruitment office.
Saudi employer FAQs
Is ELB a Saudi Embassy-accredited Philippine recruitment agency?
Yes. ELB International Services Inc. is accredited with the Saudi Embassy in Manila, which keeps its own record of accredited Philippine recruitment agencies. The embassy does not issue a certificate, so the accreditation is confirmed against that record rather than by a document. For each requirement, the accreditation and recruitment documentation that applies to the specific employer and worksite is still required.
Can Saudi employers hire Filipino workers through ELB?
Yes. ELB is positioned to support Saudi employers with Filipino manpower sourcing, screening, interview coordination, documentation and deployment workflow, subject to employer requirements and approved job orders.
What workers can Saudi employers request?
ELB publishes recruitment coverage across construction, engineering, oil and gas, healthcare, hospitality, facilities, logistics and skilled labor, including welders, engineers and electricians.
What should a Saudi employer send first?
Send the company name, Saudi worksite or city, required positions, quantity, salary and benefits, experience and certification requirements, interview method and target deployment date.

What happens on the Saudi side?
Your company or its licensed Saudi recruitment partner handles the Saudi-side steps: the block visa issued through the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development, employment contract authentication, visa stamping, and the Iqama residence permit after arrival. ELB handles the Philippine side.
