The Going Away Letter is a critical document in Saudi Arabian employment practice, required when an employee leaves their position, whether through resignation, contract completion, or termination. This document serves multiple purposes: it confirms the employment period and position held, acknowledges the settlement of all financial dues including end-of-service benefits, and provides necessary clearances for both local and expatriate employees. The letter must comply with Saudi Labor Law requirements, particularly Royal Decree No. M/51 and related ministerial decisions. It is essential for employees seeking new employment opportunities and for expatriate workers requiring documentation for visa cancellation and final exit procedures. The Going Away Letter also serves as an official reference document for future employment verification and helps protect both parties' legal interests by clearly documenting the termination of the employment relationship.
