As I wrote earlier Hep B+ are deported depending on their profession. The information is from my relative who is working in Infection Control department in Abudhabi Health Authority. The decisions are made by the preventive medicine department of the hospital where you do your medical and are case dependant. You can use the ask dubai service for more details at DNRD.

Default residence visa for hep b

hi there!



i am from philippines. i am wanting to go to dubai or qatar. i have relatives there and it is that easy for them to get a sponsorship visa especially in qatar since my boyfriend is also there. i am afraid to follow him since he doesnt even have an idea of what is buggling my mind. i do have hepatitis b. and this is my problem for years . i wanted to pursue a career abroad and i am researching and searching for right answers and right persons knowledgable to talk to but none of them replied. my work is not related in medical or restaurants, im in the office filed, sales and marketing to be exact. i do not have the courage to apply in the philippines via recruitment agency, although i have some interview calls but wasnt that eager enough since i lose hope when medical is the issue.



my boyfriend wanted to sponsor me in going to qatar, yet it's painful for me since i want to hide what my condition is. i really wana follow him but im afraid to be deported once found out bout my hepatitis b. how can i get residence visa if before i get a residence ID i have to undergo medical and as what i am hearing of, this case will be deported. what are the chances of me not getting deported once im there?



i hope you could give me a vital answer. im thinking of not wasting time and money processing my papers but will be deported soon. i pray that somebody is there to help me or even inquire in the qatar residence visa issuing agency about my hep b case.

but in some articles i have read only those medical related jobs, restaurants are deported. but i wana make sure on this. also, if my boyfriend will sponsor me, will he still find out that i have hep b or its none of his sponsorship concerns?

if you can email me, or have answers on this, pls i need it badly, im getting more frustrated, i am carrying this disease and still not fortunate enough to bulid a living abroad.



thank u so much

I have even spoken to the doctor in UAE and as per him in your category there should not be any problem for the visa

You cannot be sponsored by a boyfriend anywhere in the Middle East, only by a spouse.

hi, google

do u know somebody from qatar? or a company hiring for a position in marketing? i would want to try applying coz this is the only way i can get through the country coz they will be the one to process my application if ever. sori for being so eager to look up for helpful and trustworthy answers, this is the only way i can be delighted coz i am so depressed with my situation. i cannot apply for any agency here coz from here, they will reject my application once i go through medical process. the only way i know id through sponsorship, but my worry is the deported issue.

hope u still can help me.

thank u so much.

Im not 100% sue, but I believe most Gulf countries require a medical ist (like Dubai)..it is done when sponsorship/residency is done. So you cant really avoid the test Im afraid, and to be really honest, I think it is something you should share with your partner.

hi

thank you for your replies. yup, it's not excatly my boyfriend who will sponsor me. just like others are doing, he can help me find a sponsor who is willing to give a business visa likewise. but i wana make sure if i get there, it will not be a problem of me to be deported because of hepatitis b. and as what i am reading only those jobs related to medical, household, hotels, are considered for deportation. i wana make sure if i get an office work, will i not be deported in this case. hope u can find me asnwers as well.

or anybody there who is presently working and has been issued a residence visa but is a carrier of hepatitis b. in this case, it will be much more help since base on somebody else's experience.

Hi All, what is the latest on HEP C ? Can a sponsored wife be allowed in at this time and if so, can she work in the medical field ? My partner at work and his wife are wanting to move to Dubai with us but she has Hep C. I was reading the latest on it and got the message as being that they haven't confirmed deportation would be done yet. They are just attempting to get the minister to put it on the books ?

I agree with sgilli3. I think that it would be a good idea to share this with your boyfriend. It will be really unfair on both of you and your relationship if he were to find out about your Hep through someone else.

Since your boyfriend is already in Qatar and as you have said that he has expressed an interest in helping you find employment, I believe that this might be a route worth exploring. Being out there already, he would be able to find out more information about potential employers and recommend someone trustworthy who will treat you right. I'm not knowledgeable in any way about the Qatar medical requirement in regards to Hep B but hopefully this will not prevent you from getting a residence permit and joining your boyfriend in Qatar. If anything, sharing this with him will mean that he can try and research the issue and contact the relevant departments in Qatar to obtain advice.

Best of luck. I really hope that it works out for you.
