The Agency said this comes as part of the Saudi continuous support and brotherly attitudes toward Yemen.

The new status will provide Yemeni workers in Saudi Arabia facilitations in employments, medical services and health insurance.

The Visitor IDs had been renewed in six-month extensions a number of times to retain the Yemenis in their livelihoods in Saudi Arabia, considering the hard situations in Yemen as a result of the Saleh-Houthi coup d'état.
