Entry/Exit Visas
By qatarlivingnow •
Does anyone know if the employers in Qatar hold the passports of Westerner (US Citizens) Employees with them or are they held in the possession of the employee. Also, can some experienced people shed some light on issuing Exit Visas for Westerners from a Qatar MultiNational Employer.
Greatly appreciate all information.
Thank You,
As with everybody in the society , Be nice with your sponsor to get all the help & benefits .....
Ok its TEchnically illegal to hold anyone ones passport here in Qatar, how ever some employers of low paid workers still practice this illegal activity.
Regarding Westeners and any one in Qatar the Possession of the Passport should always be with the Passport holder.
Regarding Exit, if you are on Sponsored and now have an RP, your employer needs to apply an exit permit on your behalf in order for you to leave the country.
