Can I work in Qatar?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Employer-sponsored work visa under a Ministry of Labour recruitment approval set by job and nationality; employers normally pay, and recruiters may not charge you.
Watch for: The hotel's recruitment approval is set by job and nationality, so it may have no slot for your passport. If your permit is cancelled you must leave within 14 days (since 15 June 2026).
Official source: Ministry of Interior: visa services (work and visit visas). Checked November 2026.
