Please answer her questions

Mystica's picture

Hi Mystica,
I came across in one message you mentioned about a women got sent back to her home country when they found Hepa B from her medical. May I please ask you if they check everyone for Hepa B for all kinds of jobs? I am a girl and making a decision about taking up a job in Qatar working for an oil company, doing Healthy, Safety and Environment evaluation work. Need to go offshore sometimes. And unfortunately, I am Hepa B positive. I can't let the employer in Qatar finds out because I work for them in other countries where there is no work restriction on people with Hepa B. I have no one to ask about this question. Would you please be so kind to help me confirm that with Hepa B I have no hope in getting the residence visa and work visa in Qatar? I am about to make a decision that will change my life... Would you please help me to find out? or let me know who else I can go ask the question?
Please help me and let me know as soon as you can if possible and I truely appreciate it.

XXX

ngourlay said eventually, it will be found out ...

You can get into the country on a tourist visa for three months, but to gain a residence permit you need to take a medical which includes hepatitis and HIV tests.

I don't think you have much chance of working in Qatar. Sorry.

ngourlay is right don't waste your time, trying to keep health secrets in Qatar will make you more desperate than you already may be.

Medical test
If you work under category written below, you need to pass all these test: HIV test, Chest X-ray(PTB) test, Hepatitis A, B, & C and others.

1. Medical
2. Para-medical
3. Food Handlers workers
4. Primary School Teachers

If your job doesn't belong to these category, you ONLY need to pass HIV test & Chest X-Ray(Pulmonary Tubedculosis) exam.

I find this very logical
