Guys,

If I am currently employed on a temporary contract and will transfer to another company before one year of employment from my current employer, (my employer issues an NOC)will there be an issue when my new company applies visa for me?

Just an added info, the job that I will be leaving is my first job here in Doha.

Will surely appreciate to hear from you guys.

Thanks a lot!

thanks a lot,...

I got the same view that of Prudence4730's. I can't find anything in the labor law that states I need to complete a year of service with my current employer before changing sponsorship. But the glitch is, the PRO of my supposed to be new company said that I need to complete the one year service. Can you please help me shed a light on this?

I see no problem if your current employer issues NOC, lucky you, they don't usually gives NOC here.

You need to wait for an year for the transfer. till then your current employer can give you an iyara.

I think you should complete minimum one year with your first Sponsor for transferring your visa to another Sponsor.
