Hello,

I have the valid UAE residence permit and yesterday i got the qatar RP stamped.

The whole thing depend on your PRO how sharp is your PRO and how he handle the situation. We reach at the immigartion dept at 10AM and take the token and wait for our turn.

On our turn the PRO went to the immigartion GUY and i dont know what he talked to him and what he did there...after 15 min he was back with my ID card and Qatar RP Stamped on my Passport.

Other important thing is that dont tell the immgartion people that you have othe GCC residency. until they see on your Passport by themself just try to avoid the situation and the PRO is the most important guy in this it on you how you keep your PRO happy.

Best of Luck

hi to all....

I read all of your answers. Recently just to clear my doubt I visited the Ministry of Interior, Qatar. It is mentioned that I will be able to have Dual RP by paying QR 2000.

I have attached the refernce website below. Please see it and give me your suggestions.

You cannot have a dual residency unless your sponsor in both the countries are the same... Or else you have to have a hell lotta influence

Depends on your company's Mandoob (Representative). I have had Kuwait's valid R.P. and got Qatar's one without any hassle.

Heya mdsmds,

Yes it is possible. I have had a consultant UAE RP for a couple years and just now have gotten the Qatar RP. Am not sure if my sponsor paid extra for this to work but it is do-able. Best of luck!
