Hi Friends,

I am a software engineer currently working in India. I got a job offer from Qatar and they also issued a Qatar 2 year resident work visa. My joining is next month in Qatar.

Now, I also got a job offer from a company in Abu Dhabi.

My question is, can i get a work visa for UAE now since i already got one for Qatar?

Your help is really appreciated.

Thank you.

Thanks for your response idreeskhan...

Yes, i have not moved to Qatar yet, still in india. So no stamping on my passport.

I just want to make sure that there wouldn't be any problems in getting UAE work as my Qatar Resident work visa is already approved (i can see it onlin).

Offer is almost same for both them.

Thank you.

Hi,

Luck man got two offer at same time :)

I'm hopping yes because its not still stamped on your passport.

But decide on offer if offer is almost same on both side then go to UAE.
