❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is “Local Kafala” and why is it required?
Kafala is Saudi Arabia’s sponsorship system for expatriate workers. A “local Kafala transfer” means the employer will transfer your existing sponsorship (Kafala) from your current sponsor to their company locally — without the need for a new visa or overseas processing. This process is faster and simpler than overseas recruitment, which is why the employer is specifically looking for candidates already in Saudi Arabia under a transferable Kafala arrangement.
Is overseas application accepted?
No. The employer has specifically stated “Only Local Kafala” — meaning candidates currently outside Saudi Arabia are not eligible for this vacancy. Only candidates already in Saudi Arabia with a transferable Iqama or Kafala will be considered.
What coffee experience is required?
The employer requires a professional and experienced Barista — not a beginner. Candidates must have hands-on experience operating commercial espresso machines, steaming milk, and preparing a variety of coffee beverages to a consistently high standard.
Can I apply if I am from a nationality not listed?
The employer lists Indian, Pakistani, Nepali, and Bangladeshi nationalities as preferred. Candidates of other nationalities who are already in Saudi Arabia with a transferable Iqama and strong barista experience are welcome to contact the employer and inquire.
What is the salary for this role?
The salary is SAR 1,500 per month as confirmed by the employer. This is a fixed amount. Candidates should inquire about any additional allowances or benefits directly with the employer via WhatsApp.
How do I apply?
Contact the employer via WhatsApp or call at +966 557 936 193. Confirm your barista experience, preferred nationality, and your current Kafala/Iqama transfer status in your first message.
