Has anyone here been to this situation? Your valued advice is needed.

My brother came to qatar on family visit visa which was valid for 3 months.. my husband as his sponsor was able to extend it for another month.. expiring on 1-jan-2015. he was able to find an employment but this company put him in a business visa issued on 1-1-15. It says in the visa, single entry, valid to use..when my husband made some inquiry in metrash using his previous visa there is a penalty of 800 qar. Does this mean that my brother needs to exit Qatar to be able to use the business visa?

thank you all for your inputs... can he exit thru abu samra? which is the best exit point as he will return the same day because his business visa is ready.

Immediately exit and come back to with new Business Visa. Until he exit, you have to pay 200 or more for each day.

Careful..

From what I have know, since the visit visa has expired, there will be a penalty of QR 200 per each extra day the person stays in Qatar after the expiry of the visa. I suggest your husband check with his company's mandoob on this matter as he may be knowing better about the rules and regulations in your case.
