The Saudi Arabian government gives family visas to migrant workers with more than five thousand riyals (about 86 thousand rupees).

According to the report, the Saudi government will continue to increase the tax by 2020 every year.

According to the Saudi government's order, all migrant families will have to pay advance tax of this tax. That is, the family in which the three dependents his parents will have to pay 300 riyals in advance.
