Visa Problem !!!
Good Morning Everyone ! I hope you all can help me out soon !
I am in qatar on a business visa and I am hoping to get a work visa soon.
However my convocation certificate from mumbai university has still not been issued... I do have a degree certificate from the above university stating that I have completed my engineering degree...
My questions are,
1. Will this certificate be enough to obtain a work visa ???
2. Do I need to apply for a residence permit ? I have heard that it is only required for families and I am a bachelor.
3. I have heard that if I get a work visa and dont get a residence permit within 2 months, My work visa will be cancelled... Is this true ???
Please do help me out soon !
Thanks !!!
Did you solve this problem ? I am in the same position. How did you solve it ?
Dear Adithya, I have also same problem. I do not have my convocation here. I have only my degree certificates(Memo & provisional).
Did you get the Visa by using the degree certificates?
U MUST BE FIND JOB WITH INDAN VISSA
OK so if your degree cert is attested that means you can apply for resident visa . Of course this will be after you have have joined the company , after the inital HR process. Please speak to the company HR or the PRO
Dear job means resident visa, when you get a job your sponsor will apply for your permanent visa, permanent visa means resident/work perment.
Any if your degress/ certificate are attested from your country's forign office and from your embassy in Qatar then Qatar Forrign office will attest your certificate/ Degrees and then no one will ask that "Is it convocation degrees or certificate or what so ever.
Yes I do...
Why your company didn't help you anything on this matter? They should not expect you can do it on your own right?
Yup... I had it attested through urogulf... all attestations are completed...
I have the degree certificate attested... will that be enough while applying for a residence permit ???
You need to speak to the HR of your employer . I believe you need a degree certificate which needs to be attested by the university, MOE and Qatar embassy especially for engineers . You can get this done via your company or private agencies like Urogulf.
So I do need a residence permit seperately... After getting my work visa ?
Thanks for the reply... I already have secured a job here. And I have also got a sponsor... Do i need a residence visa ?
You are not getting any residence visa without sponsorship in Qatar. Sponsorship means, a company/local qatari that willing to hire you while you're in qatar.
You need to get a job first in Qatar. Some people using their visiting visa to come here and then looking for any job within that given period.
