Tricky question!

Guys I have a question, suppose that I decided to buy one of the apartments in one of the freehold projects such as the pearl or the west bay, what will happen to my sponsorship status, will I remain under the sponsorship of my company or this will change? And if it changed and I was granted another type of residence permit, will I be entitled to work in another place in Qatar or not?

I know for a fact that you wont need a sponsor when you buy a property. Unless the law changes again. Who knows.

ngourlay thanks for the help

Sentibhim, your flat give you a for life residency that has nothing to do with your sponsor, in other words you will be sponsored by your "flat", my point is what if you want to work in some other company...I think as ngourlay said...no body thought of it yet

I cant believe the sponsor of Qatar.They can do anything.If they dont need you,What would do yo do ? cry ? or Ready to pack your bag ? or take help of court ? what about your Apartments ? So i think automatically this,this recent sponsorship must be dispose.

thanks

The Gulf Times has an occasional column where legal questions are answered. Try them. My guess is that no one has thought about it yet.

Sentibhim...I would like to change my sponsorship in that case of course, but what risk you are talking about, I didn't quite understand your point.

I think yo don't need to change sponsorship .You may be the boss of Qatar for 20 years.I dont know the fact.But,If you want to buy a Apartment ,who want to be in Risk ? are you ?
