To anyone out there that has been offered a position in the Middle East.

I was asked by a company if I wanted them to supply me with a NOC. Could anyone please tell me what this means?

NOC is only applicable for those who are working in Qatar and intend to change Employer or a new company located in Qatar. Therefore, a new employer need a NOC from your existing Employer in order for them to proceed with your work permit. Normally, existing employer will issue after you submit your resignation letter and only if u request. But if the existing employer decline to issue out the NOC due to whatever reason is, then u have no choice but to reject the new offer and move out from qatar within 2-3months.
For those who are not able to get the NOC will be prohibited to work in Qatar for 2 years.

To those that never work in Qatar before and first time getting a job offer to join a company in Qatar are not require NOC. It's not applicable.

Cheers
