I don't know about in Qatar but I arrived in Abu Dhabi 2 weeks ago and brought with me a printed copy sent via email by my company. At customs I was sent to a desk to pick up yet another copy, which they stamped. The next day I was taken through some crazy stuff, (blood test, chest x-ray, finger printing and to an office where they put the visa into your passport) - I received it after about 1 week. Maybe you will get yours when you arrive in the country? It would probably be a good idea for your husband to chase it - things take a long time to happen over here in the UAE.
Have you had any other replies?( I am also from the UK. I sympathise because it is a very strange experience and everything seems to take forever!) (Charline xx)
Hi, I'm a single woman just moved to Abu Dhabi and looking for a flat share or house share as prices for anything else are very high. Any ideas? I've been looking on Dubizzle and am struggling.
I'm also looking to meet other women to socialise with, any takers?! :)
