I am considering a job offer in Qatar and have been looking on this and other sites for info. I have a 12 year old conviction of GBH for which I received a 250 GBP fine. This has been considered spent in the UK for 7 years.
Does anyone know wether this is relevant to obtaining a work visa(I do not work with chidren or vulnerable groups)?
Thanks in advance.

dont you know have to provide a police clearance certificate to get your RP?

What happens then? will the conviction casue a problem then? what about if you have a police caution from 10 years ago?

Thanks guys. Do you know specifically what I will be asked to provide or declare?

P.S. Raven, cherish that photo - it will be a good few years before we get back there.
