It is true indeed that the Sandpit can be an unforgiving place. There has been a thread on here for many years dealing with these issues. They have always been there and always will be there. Perhaps it would have been wise for you and others to read them and/or consult others before committing to joining NAPT. If you signed the contract for the attraction of the tax-free money then simply accept that and put up with the ****. Otherwise leave. You have no sympathy from me and I suspect many others who have been there before.

The locals will promise you anything and everything to get you there. Once there it will change and you will not get the package offered or there will be a reason not to give you what you were originally told. Added to this, there is the uncertainty that they can (and will) terminate your contract immediately if they so wish just because they feel like it. Excuses for not paying annual bonus's etc. I hear the guys ddi not have internet connected for some months and there are suspicions of monitoring communications etc.
Despite this, if you go there, stash as much cash away as possible, dont spend too much, make sure if you need to, you have an exit strategy so if required you can take your money and run.
Remember! you need your sponsors permission to exit Qatar.
A number of guys have left of their own accord, some have left as a result of the Qatari's terminating contracts early.
From what I've heard, NAPT are useless as an employer but experts at incompetence. Late salary payments, witheld refunds of allowances etc.
How do you know if NAPT personel are lying? Their mouths are moving!

People keep asking me about how is working in Qatar and specifically for QEAF through NAPT.
In order to clarify the situation for good I will pass you two self explanatory links that will give you the right idea of what you are going to find in this particular part of the world ...

Strange that this post should resurrect after being dormant since May. Although I am not a fan of the QEAF and the way they do business, I feel the jibes at Qatar as a whole is unwarranted. True the traffic can be horrendous, but it is in KSA, Dubai and Abu Dhabi as well. As per the employment of third party nationals, every country has it's immigration and employment issues. Personally, I would not recommend friends and colleagues to apply to NAPT for many of the reasons previously raised in this thread. However, it is all down to personal choice and if they wish to ignore the advice, they have made their bed etc....
