Work visa > Business Visa?

Good Afternoon All,

Could anyone help clarify the following situation? I'm a British expat with a full working visa and residency permit under my current company, I have however handed in my notice and all the formalities regarding visa cancellation will take place soon, I am leaving on good terms and plan to leave Qatar for good in the new year, however I have been offered a temporary position from now until December where they will be looking to bring me in under a Business Visa.

I can get an NOC from my current company although i've been told that this will only provided if I am transferring my sponsorship and not cancelling it completely.

Will I be able to fly and come back to Qatar the same day under a new business visa?

Thanks in advance.

If the current company is willing to give you the NOC and they are not cancelling your RP, then you can change the sponsorship to the new company. No need to exit the country or no need to issue the business visa.

If the current company cancelling your RP and only giving the NOC, then you have to exit and the next day the new company can issue the business visa for you and you can come back in new business visa.
