Visa for visiting parents

Sophiya
By Sophiya

My parents would like to vist Qatar for a few weeks. They are currently in Saudi Arabia visiting family.

What I want to know is, is it possible to apply for a Qatari visa from Saudi? Is it even possible to apply through travel agents or is it necessary to go through the HR department of my husband's company to sponsor them for a visit visa to Qatar.

Any suggestions would be appreciate.

Thanks!

Hi Sammy!

Can you tell me exactly what papers I would need? Passport copies? Pictures and NOC only?

I have no idea how to proceed and where to begin.

Thanks a bunch!

all you need is a NOC from your spouse company and you can do it yourself at the immigration office.

if you are takling them for few weeks, better u try 1 month hotel visit visa. it wil cost 500 for each and some small charge for the hotel. you can directy talk to the hotel and get the visa from them. 1-2 days of process only.

I have done this with La Villa Palace hotel.
