Hi, we have now received our Visas from QU (they are for 6 months but presumably keep being renewed).  A colleague advised that this may not allow us to get contracts for broadband, cable, etc when we arrive but that we may need something else.   Any ideas what we need, please, and how do we get it?  I am anxious to get some broadband connection as soon as possible so I can keep in touch with home.

Thanks

Good point by tg; if your employer has pre-installed a landline you can ask them to arrange for broadband access.

Hi Lachalla,

Thats your entry visa for work at Qatar which has a total validity of Entry for 6 months...Once you enter Qatar on Work Visa...Immigration will stamp another entry on your passport for one month..Within this one month you shall get your medical, fingerprinting done and get residence Visa..Residence Visas are valid for 1 to 3 Years..These are re-newed every year or as stamped..

Once residence visa is stamped (with 2 months of your arrival) ..you will have broad band and others..You can also have all this if you have a phone pre-installed within your accomodation from your company...
