Dear all

I was offered a job in Qatar and this time the company asked me to atest some documents with the Qatari Embassy BEFORE I actually leave Australia.

The Qatari representative for Australia is the embassy in Japan.

In our previous time in Doha we didnt need to do anything regarding our documents (the employer took care of everything). If you are an aussie and had to atest your documents before getting to Doha... how did you do it?

Really hoping for some light.....

Thanks

Camila

Hi! Thanks so much for your help!! Just showed your message to my husband and we will get it done next week. Much easier than we thought...

Last time we went to Doha we got it all done by the company...

Anyway, thanks a lot.

Dear Camilla,

I got my originals as well as photocopy documents attested from Notary Public in Australia and then by the Department of Foreign Affairs in Australia. When i arrived in Doha i contacted the Australian Embassy in Abu Dhabi and they normally visit Doha on a monthly basis. They will then attest your document as your documents will already be attested by DFAT. After getting attestation from Australian Embassy in Abudhabi you need to take these documents to Qatar Foreign Affairs and they will then attest your documents as your documents will already be attested by Australian Embassy in Abu Dhabi.

So the steps are:

1) Get documents attested by Notary Public in Australia

2) Then Get documents attested by Department of Foreign Affairs in Australia( If you are in Sydney then they are in Central Station)

3) Arrive in Doha get your documents attested from Australian Embassy in Abu Dhabi (They normally visit Qatar every month or either send it to them in Abu Dhabi)

4) Then take your documents to Qatar Foreign Affairs

This is the procedure i followed.

If you need any more help then let me know.

Take care
