Thanks both for your advice. It sounds a bit complicated, but I guess a lot depends on my employer. I'll keep looking into it...

I don't know the current situation but I know there were bans in place for Syrians - I wouldn't assume you can get him a visa. As marycatherine says a lot depends on what your position is - if you're a school teacher you'd normally be able to sponsor your husband. I'd be less certain that would be the case for ESL/EFL teachers but a lot would depend on who's sponsoring you. Best thing to do is to ask potential employers.

It will depend on your actual job title/position as well as your salary. Your employer's HR people/PRO should be able to advise. Visa availability for certain nationals are restricted - but that's for a work permit. He would probably be able to come if he were to be a house husband. In order for him to be legally employed he has to be sponsored by his employer who will be subject to the availability of a visa for a Syrian employee.

Good afternoon everyone, I wonder if someone could give me some advice... I'm a British woman and an English teacher. I've lived and worked in the Gulf before and I'm considering working in Qatar soon. But I'd like to know - can I bring my husband? I think I can earn the required salary, but I don't know if there are other rules. He's Syrian - are there any nationality restrictions? Also, once he's resident there, could he get a work permit or labor card? Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks :-)
