Hi,

The deformity does not make you unfit for any official job. But it is the duty of the GCC approved medical center (GAMCA) to screen you for the presence of illnesses and deformities and mention the same on the medical certificate that they issue to you. You can apply for official jobs with this certificate in hand and if the employer wishes to recruit you, they can do so. Please do not feel discouraged by this. Whether you get a job in Saudi or not, this does not make you unfit.

Hope this helps you. Best wishes.
