miserable, If your company or mandoop has good contact with top official inside immigration, possible to pay 500 QAR, without leaving Qatar or else you have to go out of Qatar for visa run and comeback with Employment Visa. Please make it sure and check you must obtain a copy of your visit visa extension for sure, some people are not aware then at the end they will suffer for paying overstaying charges.

If your Work Visit Visa arranged by a Company or Recruitment Agency, they can extend your stay with a fee. Then if you got a job, your new Employer will send you to Dubai or Bahrain for visa run then you can come back to Qatar with Employment Visa, not necessarily to go back to your Country.

So you came on a visit visa looking for work. You haven't been able to find work and are unable to extend the visa.

My suggestion is to go home. Don't waste your money and your health trying to claw work or exension. If you get the chance , then come back again at a later date

If you have a work visa, as you said, then you must have a sponsor who issued the visa. And your sponsor has made the work visa for you because he wanted to hire you. So, what's the problem?

I'm not sure what you're asking but please don't buy a job visa - it is illegal
