WORK VISA OF QATAR

Hi 2 all of you living in Qatar.

I have been very curious about one query. I have got an offer from a very prestigeous company. I signed the offer letter and sent all the required documents alongwith it. But its been a month I haven't got the Work VISA. Everytime I call to the HR they say that the Government is not issuing visa to Pakistani nationals but we are intact with the immigration department for your visa. I want to ask you all that would that be a show stopper or its just a matter of time. And one more thing to mention here is that one of my colleague has also got the job offer from the same organization and he has got the work visa. Can anyone guide me through. It would turn out to be a great support from all of you living out there as I am very much keen to get this job.

Regards,

Sobu.

3 years ago, my husband also have to wait for 3 months to get his working visa in Qatar. But Alhamdulillah he got it.

There is a quota given for each nationality. So, your future company can only be able to apply for your visa, once there is vacant visa, means other pakistani cancel his visa, means his quota number is vacant, then your company will process.

Just pray for the best, that one of your compatriot getting a better job out of qatar, so you can come to re-fill his place.

as your company said, generally Government is not issuing visa to Pakistani nationals.. but there are always exceptions.. it looks like your company tries to go through exception. Will they get it? GOD knows... no one can predict... What you can do? Just to wait...

good luck...
