How to deal with a run away driver

Translator
By Translator

My driver, which I sponser, went to his country for a two months vacation, on a ticket paid by myself. He worked for me for two years so far. His RP will expire April 2010.

Unfortunately, he did not show up on the expected day of return.

Now, I must have a fulltime driver starting two weeks from now. I have a candidate here in Doha who is willing to change his sponsership, and he is from the same nationality.

Kindly advise of the following:

1. Can I cancel his RP while he is outside Qatar?
2. Is it possible to switch the visa to another driver
3. Any other alternative solution

Bro,

Your driver's visa automatically expires if he is outside of the country for the last 6 months from the date of his departure. You can cancel your previous driver's visa immediately and transfer the visa to your new driver.

Cheers,
