Hi Everybody

I tried to explore many thread before deciding to post a new thread for may be common but pertinent to me questions.

I have come to Qatar recently and got my RP completed.

I wish to bring my family (wife and kids) to visit me for 12-15 days to Doha.
Can any body answer my few questions.

1. What are the documents requirement for visit visa.
2. I have heard that Airport visa office has closed. Any further input on this. Where do I need to go if it has closed?
3. How long does it take after submission of visit visa application and actual visa from the concerned authority.

I shall be highly thankful for any useful answers to my queries.

Regards

Romy

apply for their Visas while your wife and children are still in your home country. The approval takes only 4 days. then send the electronic copy them to have it stamped,by the qatar embassy of your home country,on their passports before going to Doha.

thanks
