Hey guys ,
I am engineer and arrived to Qatar before one week . I came under work sponsorship of one company but now I want to change another ..I do not have ID yet from my current employer I have only done the medical ... so it is possible to change to another before the contract is approved by the ministry of labor .....?
thank

It is possible without any problem only if you still didn't make the fingerprint.

Just exit & come back with a new visa, you even don't need an exit permit.

But do you have your passport with you? because normally sponsers take the passport at this stage.

A big NO. Your current employer will not allow you to do that. Even if you completed one year service with them you need NOC to transfer to another sponsor. And NOC is their sole discretion. You can only ask for it but it's their decision to give you or not..
