Manong Flor, that is not Business Visa. That is the so called 3-months Work Entry Visa. Because no one enter Qatar with an IQAMA or any type of PERMANENT VISA stamped on their passport prior to entry, irregardless of nationality since year-1998(at least,my 1st entry in Qatar). One must undergo first some procedures in their country and it is also a must to undergo MEDICAL again in Qatar & FINGER PRINT here before you can obtained a permanent visa or work visa. The Qatar Immigration will not issue directly a permanent visa unless a worker is fit for work. Recruitment agencies and POEA in the Philippines ARE NOT responsible for processing VISIT VISA=(Business Visa, Family Visit Visa and Tourist Visa) outside the country of course. However our airport immigration in coordination with our Embassy here have certain requirements to allows you for flight. If you went thru Recruitment Agencies for processing and attended PDOS, then you are obviously holding a Work Entry Visa, which is automatically switch to WORK VISA once you passed the Medical & Finger Print here. But let me clear this again, Your entry here is LEGAL.
