To make sure you have given the same Designation which was mentioned during the interview, you need offer letter...Agencies can also reduce the basic salary if offer letter is not provided....if visa is issued without offer letter, you cannot do anything later on...they will tell tht its all mentioned in your offer letter which u will b forcefull 2 sign after the issuing of visa.

Demand for an OFFER LETTER FIRST.

For your own protection, do not allow them to process your visa without seeing and/or agreeing on the job offer. It maybe a simple thing but, when the visa is processed and the salary, benefits, etc. is not good enough for you to consider and/or accept the offer, you are already tied up to the company. Meaning, if you have another offer with better salary and benefits, you can't go to Qatar that easy. Either you have to wait for six months expiration of your visa issued by this company or, ask this company to cancel your visa, either way, it will give you HEADACHE.

Yes, Offer letter should be accepted by you prior to enter in Qatar. Demand for it or get contact number of your qatar sponsor and talk with them directly.
