I am thinking of sponsoring my husband to live in Qatar. I heard that if he gets a job, he will need to get a work permit. Are husbands able to get a work permit? And what papers will they ask for, is a police clearance letter necessary? Thanks.
even for "husband" there are certain requirements to sponsor his wife, such as salary, position, etc. For "wife" those requirements are much stricter.
For getting a work visa and RP under the company he needs to find a JOB, and the hiring company must have approved quota for his nationality+ position.
Thanks for explaining. Is it impossible to obtain a RP for him under my sponsorship because he is a 'husband' and not a 'wife'? What are the requirements for getting a work visa under company sponsorship?
bringing him on family visit visa (6 months) and sponsoring him for the Residence permit are two different things.
Even IF you are able to bring him on a Family visit visa (6 months), he won't be able to work with this type of visa. The Company who hired him will have to issue a Work Visa for him and will have to take him under its sponsorship.
As for the Residence permit, you won't be able to obtain RP for him (which is necessary for the Work permit) under your sponsorship. So this is not an option for you.
All you need is to TRY to bring him on Family visa 6 months. THen he will need to find a job and to move under the hiring company sponsorship.
if you get over 7k you can sponser him with fam visa. once he is here and under your visa,
He should bring a police clearance report from his home country (need to be attested by his Embassy here)
so let him find a job, he will need to give the police clearance report and the company will fix him a work visa. (not the same as yours) he will still remain under your sponsorship.
or different option if his job is well paid and he will get good benefits like tickets and also housing allowance he can ask his new employer to be his sponsor
If he is on a family visa he needs to find a job first so that the company who will hire him will be the one to process his work permit.
In my case the company who hired me did'nt ask my police clearance they just get a copy of my Passport, RP and copy of my Degree Certificate.I was already a resident here in Doha for a year before I decided to look for a job.
I am from Europe and I have no problem with my visa. I can sponsor him (on a family visa?), but heard he also needs a work permit in order to start working. So my questions are a) can a husband under wife sponsorship get a work permit, b) what papers does he need, does he need police clearance for the application.

Thanks. Is the police clearance an official requirement from the government when you apply for the family visa and work permit? Or not always needed?
yupp
for your problem.
