I would like to know if have a Temporary Paper visa from a company and want to join another company whats the procedure.Finger print or medical not completed.

- Do i need to go out of qatar and come back?
-Do i need to wait 3 months for the temp visa to cancel or Can a new employer apply my Visa straight away?

I do have same situation...but in my case, medical and finger printing is finished and after that I resigned and join another company. But my new company cant apply a new visa for me, the immigration advised them to ask my old company to continue the processing of my visa and they will just pay the fee. but im not sure if they will continue it. What are the consequences if my previous company will not continue the preocessing the visa into residence Id?And how much will be the penalty per day for the working visa? (not permanent residence visa) tnx in advance.

to what i know based on the experience of my wife and friends, this "paper visa" is given to those who were hired but dont have medical and fingerprinting done yet. this is a 3- month- validity visa. during these 3 months, you must undergo medical, and if you pass the medical, you go for fingerprinting, after which you just wait for your ID (RP) to be released. the RP (Pataqa) is valid for 1year and it is renewable yearly.

@ meghanandhan - I am referring to the visa which the company will give you when hiring you direct from the country.

This visa is valid only for 3 months. and if this visa is not stamped in to the Passport we can cancel it. Just wanted to know how.

There are no papers like that..If you on a work visa from a company either you need to get the release/NOC from your current sponsor.It doesnt matter that whether you completed finger print or medical.

If your current sponsor is willing to give you the above documents you can stamp your new visa while you are staying here.
