Expatriates Will Not Be Prevented From Travelling If Data In Passport Mismatch With The System

Security sources put an end to the confusion that prevailed among the expatriates whose passport data are different with the information in the system at airports. The sources explained that a traveler whose passport does not match the information on the ministry system, mainly the date of birth, can travel after signing an undertaking to amend his data upon return. A person will be blocked from travelling only in case of suspicion about the data or there is a difference in nationality. 

However the citizens of Syrian, Iranian and Iraqi nationalities will only be allowed to travel if their passport and computer data are identical, local Arabic media reported.

The Department of Residency Affairs yesterday witnessed huge crowd of expatriates who went to correct and amend the data after several expatriates were not allowed to travel due to the difference in the system.
