You will have to exit doha with the exit permit from your employer. However if they are willing to let you stay with their visa u can find job and the moment you found one you will have to request letter from your previous employer to change it into your new prospect employer this is as per my travel consultant. Im also confirming the same now how accurate it is. Some said I cant have another working visa untill this company provide NOC or release letter.

im currently holding working visa permit but i told this employer i dont want to work with them anymore in fact prior to issuance of working visa i told them to stop it as i decided to exit doha and be back with another visit visa unfortunately when im in bahrain waiting for my visit visa my travel agency told me working visa has been issued. Now I have to exit again. as per my travel agency i can go back with other visit visa and the moment i find job there is no need of NOC from my previous employer as I have not done any further procedure. I just signed offer letter. Is that really true? I have to decide until tomorrow. please confirm if anyone knows accurate answer

unless ur visa is stamped on ur passport u can change company... however this visa cannot be changed to another comapny.. u will have to take another visa from the other company.

Before u get the new visa u will have to wait for this visa to lapse. which will be done by the present company or waiting till validity of the visa ends..

correct me if am wrong anyone.
