Getting Ready to Go.
No doubt, if you recently got a job in Qatar, one of your first questions is “What do I need to do now?” In a series of posts, I will go through some of the essentials. The length of some of these posts might appear a bit daunting, but these processes are convoluted and attention to details is a must.

One source of comfort, your company will tell you what all you need to do. It’s always a good idea to simply ask someone either in the organization’s human resources department or your new supervisor any questions regarding a move. For the most part, your relation to the Qatari Government will be conducted through your employer. Visa papers, residency permits, driver’s licenses, etc. are pretty much all handled by the people one work’s for.
First, and most essential, make sure a passport is ready to go. That should be a given. A personal suggestion would be to update it
as soon as possible so that it will not expire while abroad. That would be a major inconvenience (and one
I would not know how to deal with, but know I would not want to deal with).The next post will look at some of the documents one needs in moving to Qatar, and Part Three of "Moving to Qatar..." will discuss a few other necessities, as well as what is not necessary in relocating.
