What are the conditions to change profession on your labour card?
I have been working for company which is based in Dubai.I work in Qatar at our client side as Product support Engineer. But they have issued VISA of electrician for me since two years.
Whenever i asked PRO, he was telling me; you bring documents and i will do it for you!
But even after submitted all documents; now he is telling now it is not possible.
Can any body guide me in this case and what are exact documents needed and how should i get visa profession changed?
Thanks in Advance!

Was not aware how to access our old post. just found your replied on my post.
@qatari- company has promised to changed it to engineer visa but salary transfer was the issue. Which our company and client are going to solve. Hopefully it will work I guess.
@cheekylady- I need Engineer visa to visit dubai and other gulf countries. Also want to sponsor my wife to stay along with me in Qatar.
well, the process is very expensive, complicated and there's no guarantee that the government will change it. Your company would have to apply for amendment to your visa category. they can do it, but in most cases companies see it as a waste of time and money. also - government issues visas in pre-determined categories, so it may not be possible to get exactly the same job title you have in your contract.
why do you want to change it?
From my knowledge, it really depends on the available types of Visa your company has, I know some who are Auto CAD operators having Engineer visa, so it really varies, I'm an in-house support but my Visa states sales person,
Did you ask your PRO why can he not change it?
