Hello !
I've been receiving a job in Doha. I 'm waiting for my visa to come. I am coming for 1 month probation maybe a month and a half. The employer said that I will receive a visit visa for this month probation . Is this safe ? Is it ok ? I'm sure u know more details about these procedures. Please help me and give me more information . Thanks!

Depends what kind of job offer you have!

One month job and on a visit visa your not legally allowed to work.

Good Luck!

that you come in on a Business Visa. Also check around regarding the company. It might be a problem later on.

I am sure an employer cant give you a visit visa..

it must be a business visa/single entry work visa..

Hi,

Greeting from Qatar.

Yup Life in Qatar is much better and safer than

many other places in the world.

There are more expatriates living here than their

own people.

Just make sure, your company is genuine and

paying you the reasonable salary.
