Process of getting married for non-qatari

Please let me know if this is possible here in Qatar:

My fiance' and I have agreed on getting married here in Qatar and this is how we are planning to get it done:

He will come here with a tourist visa.Since we are not married yet; its impossible to sponsor him a spouse visa. A business visa wont apply as well since it works for someone getting a job in Qatar/for business purposes.(Please let me know if I have understood this correctly)

Once he gets here(with the documents required), we will get married in order for him to obtain a spouse/family visa and for the sake of getting a job here since a tourist visa has a limit of stay.

we are of the same nationality and I have a stable job here in Doha.

I hope someone can enlighten me on this and help me know what are the necessary steps to do to get our marriage done here in Qatar.

Many thanks in advance.

Going to embassy will take you alot of time but not much info, ask those kabayans (country men) who got married here, make a story thread in Filexpat Group and everyone will be eager to give you direction, i could be one of the Ninang(sponsor)if pushed thru...just send me a PM..

check with the embassy. Your case seems to be different since your fiance will only be in tourist visa.
