yes, according to my experience you just need the passport copy the NOC, the eye test, the copy of dubai DL and 250 QAR, they simply give you the license. he whole process takes one hour only.

you must have a credit card to pay they do not take cash.

1-no objection certificate from the sponsor,

2-application form for transferring the licence,type in arbic

I got it done through one of the guys who sit next to the traffic department (for type-writing the application form). Gave the guy 50QAR (if i remember correctly). All i had to do was to go with him for eye test (he filled up the application from for me), and then he took the company letter, passport copy, dubai license, and disappeared for 15minutes. Came back and handed me both the licenses. Did not take more than an hour. This was at madinat khalifa.

You can change it in Qatar without any test. go to nearby driving school and ask for the procedure.
