I came to Qatar on a BUSINESS Visa, a LEGITIMATE business visa secured by a good standing company in Qatar. I would presume that at the time we were hired, application for new working visa are in the process but since our presence is already needed then, we were issued BV. But just the same, we went through the regular process of passing through an agency and do the medical etc etc. All papers were sent by the employers back then in MAnila and we went smoothly with the airport authorities.
Again, our visa when we left Manila then in 2007 was a BUSINESS VISA. It was converted to working visa in three months for some of us while mine was in two months (August).
