Hello mga kababayan, can you enlighten me about the origin of a business visa.

1. What is it? who issues it and for what purpose?
2. saan ginagamit yon usually?
3. Do companies hire a person holding a business visa and do that company will convert it to working visa once hired?
4. When does it become illegal?
Thanks a lot

rjuliusraymond: first of all please when posting in the main forum use english as the only language for questions, answers or comments.

If you still prefer in your own language then head for the appropriate forum or group and do so.

Now let's go to yuor Q's

1.-A 14 day business visa extendable for up to 3 months is issued to visitors who visit Qatar for business purposes.

For this, the visitor must have a valid passport and a return ticket. In addition, a company or a recognized establishment must submit an application with a letter signed by a sponsor in Qatar stating that the visit is for business purposes only, to the Immigration Department (Airport Visa Section) 48 hours prior to the visitor’s arrival.

2.- Unfortunatelly I don't understand Tagalog

3.-Actually a business visa must be issued by a company

4.- It becomes Illegal when "somebody" gets it for you at an affordable price, and without proper support (company/sponsor requesting the Visa). Remember there are lots of scams out there and like said in a previous posting you did it could lead to prison/deportation and banning from entering Qatar again.

Regards!!

PS: most of the information you have been asking for is either in the net or even in QL...just do a search and you will find lot's of reading to do before posting.

You have a better option of coming here. Try applying there and you may check available jobs that suits your qualifications thru the POEA website. There it'll give you which agencies have requirements for Qatar. Coming here by yourself is too risky and not worth it. Jobs are not picked from trees. Could've suggested a company if you mentioned your industry. Just a friendly advice. God bless. :)

2.Business Visa

A company or a recognized establishment submits an application to the Immigration Department (Airport Visa Section). Visas are usually given within 24 hours and are valid for 14 days. They may be extended for another 3 months.

check different type of visa here:

some of the kabayans sell this type of visa to kabayans who are in dire need to come here for a promise of getting them a job in exchange for a huge amount(QR 8-10 thou) as payment for their services but you will end up being a victim coz in the end there will be no job for you or worst you will end up in jail for buying illegal visa.
