well Oryx, i have my old parents in India and a brother who is suffering from an accident. I have my house and family here in USA. but i want to be somewhat closer to my parents. that's the reason i want to work in middle east.

well, thanks all of you. i'm working in US as an Auditor in Taxation since 5 years. i have seen that mostly US CPA or UK/Canada CA are very well accepted. ACCA is also accepted by some companies. i hold an MBA from USA and US CPA certificate/license also. so, what do you all think about my getting a job in a company or most preferably a CPA firm in Qatar. is it better that I visit Qatar and search for it. Thanks you all again.

go bayt.com and registe, search

by the way, you will need gulf experience for managerial positions

salaty detials are availalbe in bayt.com

by the way, CPA is recognised subject to you have a degree.

There is another concept - chartered qualifications (CA, CIMA, ACCA) are competitors for CPA

IF you want a career in public accounting firms, CA, ACCA are recognised.

Ok thanks

Well here they usually employ people from Asia for the job so the salary isn't that high

Depends if you were looking at an American company dealing with American issues - and thus needed an American. Also you have the passport but also depends where your got your qualifications and your experience.

Look on the usual Gulf jobsites

CPA is a certified public accountant. As for finding an accounting job here, how are you at imaginary numbers?
