Living cost bergantung kepada citarasa masing2. In general, income less than QR40+ with family is considered comfortable. Entry VISA is arranged by employer upon which working VISA is to be arranged (also by employer) at later stage.

Selamat datang ke Doha. Hopes you gain a lot of experience here.

I believe many Malaysians working with QP can help you with all the basic needs in Doha.

Have a good day..!!!

Very Happy

Thanks you two. Well still waiting for my driving license conversion...got rejexcted the first time because I'm Malaysian.....how insulting.

by **Chian** on 2009-08-31, 20:38

Zi,

My friend's wife went to see Sheikh Abdullah on last Thursday and was told to go through a driving test instead. Apparently, there's a new internal procedure, introduced since last week that all Msian/Indon ladies (May be not for Managers/Engineers) need to go through a driving test.

The wife was suggested to go through the test at Doha Driving School in Khartiyat. Perhaps with the signature from Sheikh Abdullah (obtained during the above-mentioned session), she went through the test with ease and passed.

Likewise, an Indonesian lady who (holding a US driving licence since 15 years ago) that appeared before Sheikh Abdullah on the same day was also refused direct conversion. She also went through the same process and finally managed to get her Qatar driving licence.

Hopefully, this info is useful for you as so far, only Sheikh Abdullah (besides the Director himself) are known to have the power to authorise direct conversion.

Salam.
Smile

Hi! Baru masuk forum ni hari ni..
You can call me Insan. From Pahang. Skrg kerja dgn O&G Co. Dah berkawin, anak 5. Baru ni dapat offer dgn QP thru AP recruitment.

by **Chian** on 2010-12-27, 08:04

Ir-king,

Selamat berkenalan. Your profile reminds me of myself when I came to Doha in 2008. Anak 5 and umur pun 36 then.

Bro Chian, tq!
I had posted my inquiries regarding the offer from QP... not so sure to accept it or not? Pls advice... Very Happy

by **Chian** on 2010-12-28, 09:32

Bro ir-king,
I saw one of your postings. My understanding is that your current basic salary is higher than what is offered by QP. Frankly, on financial aspect alone and If I were you, I would not accept. I imagine the tax free income in Doha would be offsetted by higher cost of living while the allowances are just sufficient to enable you to rent a good house and buy a FWD.

hello guys!
Aku masih di M'sia dan baru mendapat kerja di Qatar Petroleum...

Baru antor siap dokumen Isnin lepas.

Cuma nak tanya, berapa lama visa siap?

by **Chian** on 2011-01-13, 10:48

Pal,

MABROUK & welcome aboard.

It depends. In my case it took the company 1 week to revert with approved VISA. However, on average, I imagine it would take 2 weeks.
