The Migrant Workers Office (MWO) in Riyadh has called on the family, relatives, and acquaintances of the late overseas Filipino worker Arnold Patio Dizon to immediately coordinate with the office regarding the handling of his remains.
In a public advisory posted on Facebook dated November 4, 2025, MWO Riyadh said it is urgently seeking to reach the OFW’s wife or immediate family to finalize arrangements for either returning his body to the Philippines or proceeding with burial in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Authorities emphasized that the request is time sensitive. Under the Saudi Ministry of Health policy, the remains of a foreign national must either be repatriated or buried in the Kingdom within fourteen days.
The office appealed to anyone who knows the family of the deceased to contact MWO Riyadh as soon as possible.
Concerned individuals may call 050 285 0944 or email mwo_riyadh@dmw.gov.ph for assistance.
