I have been working here in Qatar for last 5 years. Now, my previous company in Dubai want me to establish a branch here in Qatar.
Do I need NOC from my current company here in Qatar if i resign and start new company and stand as a partner/owner?
Are there any options to establish company without getting NOC from the present company? What are the Qatari rules regarding this matter?

Appreciate your feedbacks

Easy. Think logically.

Under whose sponsorship you will be while establishing a new company? If it’s under your current sponsor, well.. he kind of has to be informed about your activities, isn’t he? Otherwise how you are going to stay under his sponsorship when you quit your job, without his agreement for it? Correct?

If you want to be under the new sponsor, your current sponsor has to sing the form “transfer of Sponsorship”, which is basically NOC.

So obviously, you cannot just quietly disappear for your work place..:) or just to walk into the office of your sponsor one day and say: ”Hey, I quit working for you, I am establishing a new company now”… right?
