Legalising Documents for Qatar Visas
Hundreds of British citizens travel to Qatar every week to begin work or to resume existing employment. Anyone seeking employment in Qatar will need to obtain the correct visa for themselves and any family members they want to enter Qatar for longer than a normal visitor.
To obtain a visa for yourself you will need to be sponsored by an employer. Your employment in Qatar will be directly linked to one organisation. They decide when you can enter and leave the country.
If you are planning to move to Qatar with your family then you will need to support their visa application. Unfortunately not everyone can simply apply for family visas from the Qatar Ministry of Interior.
Qatar will only issue visas and allow you to live together with your partner if you are married. In addition you can only move your children to Qatar if you and your partner are married. If you intend to bring your family to Qatar you must also earn more than 10,000 QR (approximately £1,800) a month from your new employment.
During the visa application process your employer or the government will ask you to attest or legalise documents with the embassy in the UK. These may include any of the following documents depending on your circumstances and the job you are applying for.
- Copies of academic certificates (degree, masters, HNC, HND, PHd, A Levels etc.)
- Copies of professional qualifications (City & Guilds, NVQ, BTEC, Membership certificates)
- Proof of employment history
- Criminal record background checks
- Medical reports or blood test results
If travelling with a partner or your family you may also need to provide-
- Marriage certificate (for partner)
- Birth certificates (for children)
- Medical reports or blood test results
