Change of sponsor by NOC
Hi Friends, need to know if it is necessary to exit the country and re-enter in case of sponsorshp change. My current sponsors have agreed to give me NOC and new sponsor is ready to hire. Secondly i need to know if my Id card number will remain the same or it will change ?
Thanks...
Which ministry should I visit and have a confimation on process, as immigiration rules often change. I am confused as in case ID card will change every thing like Qtel, Mozaic etc to be updated if I m getting just a change over of sonsorship on NOC wouldn;t the ID number remain same and medical not required I am here since last 4 years already ...
If it is just a change of sponsorship, no exit is necessary neither your ID number changes.
Things do not remain this simple once the 'losing' employer cancels your visa and offers an NOC. You will have to take an exit (it could be a hop to and back from Bahrain) within 7 days when this happens. However the 2 years ban does not apply on you since you have an NOC from this employer and a visa from the 'gaining' employer. Because you now have a brand new visa, your ID number can not remain the same and your profession might also be different from now. You'll have to take all those procedures (medical, finger print etc.) that you did when you entered Qatar the first time.
You can change your sponsorship without exit. Also your ID number will remain the same
