I am curious about how many people have a business visa on this board? Do you prefer it over an Iqama?

You make it sound like there were a choice ! The employer will dictate this and my advice is DO NOT COME ON A BUSINESS VISA !

If the employer insists on a "Business Visa" I suggest that you respectfully decline and take your labour power elsehwre.

I'm afraid that you read into it what you wanted to. I made not suggestion that there was a choice. I was only wondering if people on a business visa would prefer to stay with that status versus on Iqama.

If there is no choice, what is the point of asking people to choose ?

Scot, maybe it's like that "choice" we had in Cuba: we could pick any one of all FOUR different TV channels on which to watch Fidel give his live speeches!
