i havent seen this posts and wasnt updated so i wasnt able to reply sooner.
sorry, but i just replied to the poster as for my experience,
with regard to questions you asked:
1.) they informed me before that all i have to show to the customs in Doha to claim my car if i send it to qatar is the working Visa the company gave me, not the RP in particular, though the thing i wasnt able to confirm, since i havent sent the car and instead sold it at last minute in UAE before i left.
2.) as ive mentioned too, the authorities informed me that i can never drive the car myself from UAE if my UAE visa is already canceled. on the canadian passport thing which you were asking, i dont know too if saudi borders let you obtain visa, last thing i know, it's US and israel passport holders they wont allow, but my friend here in doha told me, his friend with an american passport was able to enter saudi, so i cant help you with this info, apologies.
but it is the driving with canceled visa that i was sure wont be possible, cause i tried that first time before i sold my car, and i was denied.
3.) what's the NOC for?
4.) they say 5% custom duty fee is applicable only to the cars manufactured over 2 years old.
hope that helps and isnt late for the response yet.
Archfe,
