Qatar is an attractive work destination for Canadians.
There are some who try to attain employment by providing fake degrees and related documents. To combat this, the Qatari government has firm requirements and procedures for Canadian educational documents for use in Qatar. Along with the appropriate fees, and original degrees, transcripts, and letters of confirmation of graduation, you will have to contact the university which issued your degree and instruct them to send additional materials directly to the embassy. Without these materials, your educational documents will not be accepted for legalization. We also recommend you know the dimension of your degree. If you do not have your degree or if it is damaged, you may be able to order a duplicate original from the issuing university for a fee. If you need to do this we recommend you have the degree shipped directly to our office to save you even more time, especially if you are currently located outside of Canada.
