Hello everyone, I'm already here in Qatar a month ago under business visa with my sponsor. Do I still need an NOC in order to apply for another company here in Qatar if ever I decide to go home on the 3 month period of the business visa? Thanks.

My probation has been extended and am not sure if the company wants to confirm me..if they don't...can i ask for NOC? i have colleagues who are given NOC cos the company didn't want to renew their contract at the end of the 2 years they served ...

so far there was no advice for me to do the medical. they said they are giving a 3 month period for my probation which was equal to do length of my business visa. i still have up to next month to finally decide. as long as Im still in business visa, nothing to worry about the future.right?

if your current employer didn't transfer your business visa to working visa then u still had a chance to discontinue the work and exit Doha. You just need to have an exit permit from the sponsor of business visa. But if you already had a medical from your current employer then it means that they already applied the change of your visa even if the RP card is not yet given to you and you will be ban for 2 years if you exit Doha. Mostly companies here are not giving NOC, so think twice before you decide.

I am looking at the situation of discontinuing my employment with my current employer now. So I advised them not to convert my business to working visa. I wanted to go home instead. What I'm afraid of is that, maybe I will be banned and can't enter again Qatar in 2yrs if I don't have an NOC from my previous sponsor. What do you think?

brattykharz u are absolutely right. U can apply for a job. And if u find an employer they will process ur visa from business to work visa. U only need NOC if u want to transfer to another employer after one year service to ur 1st employer.

why is that so? business visa is good as visit visa right? as long as I have exit stamp with my business visa on that 3 month grace period, I guess there will be no problem if I go back to my country and look again for another employer who will possibly give me a working visa. NOC is only applicable if you had a working visa I supposed.

Yes you indeed need an NOC in Original if you need to go back and come back to Qatar

Basically You will need Old NOC as well as New NOC from the current employer you have arrived her.
