Hi everyone!Good day!

I am newly employed in Qatar from Philippines with a working visa provided by the company I will be working with.

Now, I would just like to ask if it is legal and reasonable for my company to deduct from my salary the charges for my visa and Qatar ID? Or it should be shouldered by them?

Please advise.. Thank you..

No that ilegal.

All formality for employee must bear by company or sponsor.

Report to labour dept. Good luck
