This info is from the ministry of interior website:

http://www.moi.gov.qa/site/english/deptFees/index1.html

go to the residents permit section and you will find the dual RP fees.

I've also asked some of my friends who was working in bahrain and now he's working in qatar. he still holds his bahrain RP along with qatar RP.

good luck..

It's possible don't worry. From MOI website they say you can have two RP at the same time however you will pay 2000 for the visa instead of 1000 that's all.

hope that helped.

Zidd, your friend just got lucky then.

The 'official' ruling is that you cannot be resident of more than one GCC state

No you can not, Qatar RP can not be stamped (completed) unless otherwise your previous RP is either cancelled or expired. Your Bahrain RP will be automatically expired Six (6)months from the date you exit Bahrain. I got the same situation when I entered Qatar few years ago.
