Dual Residency of Kuwait & Qatar
By arshad.razik •
Dear All
Me and my family are living in Kuwait and have a valid Kuwaiti Residency visa. recently I got an offer from a Qatari Company and they have send me the " Work Visa for me and Tourist visa for my family so I can travel together with my family.
I dont wana cancel my kuwaiti visa till I settle my things in Doha.
my question is :
1-Can I stamp the Qatari Residency while I'm having my Kuwait Work Visa?
2- could I transfer my family's visit visas to a family visa with out cancelling the Kuwaiti Visa?
Need an urgent reply plz.
Regards
Yes u can one of my friends wife is holding Dubai Residence and Doha Residence.Husband holding Qatar Residence.
As similar question was discussed on QL sometime back, here what i have come to know:
1- dual residency is allowed as long as your work visa for other company hasn't been finalized...once it is done, you have to forego your OTHER RESIDENCY VISA..
2- your family can get the permanent residency of QATAR if you gets the valid RP first...
yes. possible.
yes ,,,,, You can
No NOt possible, Dual residency is illegal.
No NOt possible, Dual residency is illegal.
No
1) I recently hired an employee in a similar situation as yours, only his current visa is from UAE. Upon getting your new Qatar RP/visa finalized you will have to cancel the Kuwaiti one, there are no other options.
2) You cannot apply for a family visa until you have your Qatari RP. Your best scenario would be to bring them here under tourist (as suggested) and then switch it over.
