Get your Saudi qualification or skills verification sorted, without the guesswork
Before your work visa or Iqama can go through, Saudi Arabia needs your qualifications or trade skills verified through QVP or SVP. We confirm which one applies to you, prepare your documents, and guide you through registration and testing.
Start your QVP / SVP application
Tell us your occupation and whether you have a job offer, and a consultant will confirm which programme applies to you.
Two verification tracks, one team to guide you through either
Qualification Verification Program
For degree-holding professionals. QVP confirms your academic and professional qualifications genuinely match the role you've been hired for, under Saudi Arabia's Professional Accreditation framework.
Skills Verification Program
For trade and technical occupations. SVP tests your practical, hands-on skills against the requirements of your specific job before a work visa can be issued.
We'll confirm which one you need
Your occupation code determines whether you're routed to QVP or SVP. Send us your job title and offer details and we'll tell you exactly which track applies.
A four-step process, start to finish
Tell us your occupation
Send your job title, qualification and job offer details so we can confirm whether QVP or SVP applies to you.
We prepare your documents
We help gather and check the certificates, references and paperwork your verification requires before anything is submitted.
Registration & testing
We guide you through portal registration, and for SVP, booking your written and practical skills exam.
Verification issued
Once verified, your result feeds into your work visa application — we keep you updated at every stage.

Common questions
QVP verifies academic and professional qualifications for graduate-level roles — it confirms your degree or credential is genuine and matches your job. SVP is for trade and technical occupations, and involves a written and practical skills test instead of a document check. Your occupation code determines which one you're routed to.
It depends on your situation — some applicants start verification before they have an offer, others once an offer is in hand. We'll confirm the right order for your occupation and country when you get in touch.
Timelines vary by programme, occupation and how complete your documents are. QVP document review and SVP exam scheduling both move faster when your paperwork is prepared correctly the first time — we'll give you a realistic estimate once we've reviewed your details.
