Urgent help regarding termination

Singh-pun123
By Singh-pun123

Hello,,

I work with a company in oil field, last week around 20 people received termination letters, 

In my case, I have been working with them for the last 4 years and 9 months.

My questions are :

  • How long can I stay here in Qatar to find a new job after my company cancel my rp.
  • Is NOC still required to change to a new job knowing that It wasn't 5 years (4y9m).
  • Where is the ministry of labour office in case I want some more clarifications, and what are their working hours .

Thank you for your support.

Good News everyone

You can stay upto 3 Months after Qatar ID Cancellation.

Confirmed news from MOI.

I will post links shortly. So nobody tells anybody the 7 days or 1 Month story...it is a whole 90 days story now

Accha... if you ask company people they will always say 7 days..7 days... Its like asking a person selling tomatoes ...is the tomato good for health...He has only option to tell you..tomato is the best for health so that he can sell his tomatoes...

But as I said before...there was my friend who exited by 1 month without issues. So we can get confirmation only from a person who works at immigration and is ready to help.

My company people have confirmed that once the RP gets cancelled, one must leave within 7 days from the day of cancellation.

I don't know who is right but I would believe my company people first.

Leaving within 7 days is something company HR says. But in practice there is my friend who stayed for a month and exited without any issues. So I can confirm you can stay for 1 month without any fine

1month = 30 days

Singh-pun123: Once your RP is cancelled by your company, you must leave within 7 days from the date of cancellation. Otherwise, you will need to pay a penalty for each extra day after the expiry of 7 days.

As per the last information I have, you will be needing an NOC in your case as you have not completed 5 years. But please wait for comments from other QLers who may be knowing better.

As for getting clarifications on labour issues, I suggest you visit National Human Rights Committee office. They will guide you. They will also answer your query whether you need NOC from your employer in your case.
