before the Qatar labor law of 2004. Gratuity pay is as per your contract. If your contract stipulated it, then you are entitled to it.
After 2004, Qatar law will be followed.
I had a colleague who worked since 1992 and retired in 2008. Although his contract (since 1992) stated he is entitled to 1 month for every year in gratuity, he was paid only as per Qatar law (3 weeks for every year). :(
So I think for you, unfortunately, the qatar law will apply only from 2005.
I work with the company from 1997 todate, i resign and going this july. how much should i get End of service pay if;
a. 1997 contract is silent about end of service pay (it does not say anything about it).
b. in 2004 i need to process visa for my child, in that day i need a contract so the company did provide me a contract with date back of joining to 1997, which says that gratuity "WILL BE PAID". these document was signed and stamped by labor dept. in 2004.
c. again in 2006, same thing is required for another child, but these time gratuity "AS PER QATAR LABOR LAW"
the company says end of service pay only start on 2005/1/1, thus i got only from 2005. is these correct.
your input/comments is or will be highly appreciated.

It depends on your contract.
But by law it should not be less than 3 weeks wage for every year of service.
