Difference of privileges of Engineer & Technician Visa in Oman?

hammadmohsin

Hi,

I am working for a Spanish IT Company since 10 years in Pakistan as a system support Engineer. I have 18 Years of IT Experience in different classified fields. But I don't have Engineering Degree.
Now my company wants me to join their Oman office but Oman Govt. is giving me Technician visa instead of Engineer Visa!
Kindly tell what are the difference of privileges in Engineer and Technician Visa?

If someone has already answered this type of question before then please send me that link.
I will be really grateful.

Hi hammadmohsin,

The government has no role to play in the designations being given to the °µÍø½ûÇøriate employees. It is something which only the hiring sponsor / employer would decide.

The reason for this change in designation is the hiring company would take on the new joinee °µÍø½ûÇøriate in whatever 'labour clearance' they have got.

By accepting a lesser category, the employee would be the one to suffer the most. A higher designation would mean better benefits, while a lower designation would have limited advantages. The disadvantages would be broad and wide.

The forum contains more than enough information and details. It requires some basic effort from the part of those who want to know what these information and details are.

What I have found, you too can ... if only you had tried ... enough.

Here are a few links ... but there are so much more too, for those who really desire to know :
