IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? Qatar has begun requiring attested degree certificates and related documentation from work permit applicants in the general supervisor job category.
What does the change mean? Applicants in this category must be prepared to provide an attested version of their university degree certificate, a transcript and a letter from their university. The letter must specify that the applicant was enrolled as a full-time student for at least three years and must list the area of study. Previously, there were no specific education requirements for applicants in this category.
Analysis & Comments: Employers should make sure that employees leave enough time to gather the required documentation under Qatar’s new procedures. Failure to do so may lead to unnecessary delays.
