Dear All,I got two jobs in qatar, and I have rejected one offer and informed HR not to apply for my visa. and the second company also applied for my visa as well, unfortunately rejected company visa got approved, second company went to immigration and paid the fees my mistake as they also applied, the fees gone towards to the second company.

we came to know this yesterday only when second company paid and took the print but the name was with first company

Now Is it possible to cancel the approved visa without entering to qatar ?, as I need to cancel it, then only my job accepted company can apply for my visa and the application is already there in immigration.

I faced the same scenario earlier this year. I had to then request the first company to cancel the visa which they did after wasting about 2-3 weeks. Companies become extremely irritated when they have to do something like that. I guess the HR ppl then show their ugly side. I was informed getting a visa cancelled is not easy however later I came to know it costs like 20 or 40 riyals maybe and its not difficult at all.

You have 4 options to go with

1. Wait for auto cancelation after 6 month period

2. Your 1st company needs to deposit return ticket at QA and apply for cancelation; they can get the refund back but cancelation charges will apply

3. Come on 1st company visa; pay them QR 300+ for the visa charges and ask them for a NOC

4. Just come on 1st company visa and exit on the other day (this way company can save their visa+ issued visa will be cancelled after your exit .

5. As soon you exit Qatar your 2nd company can apply for fresh visa

Hope this answers your query
