Hi friends,
can anyone advice me regarding the return visa in the following case.My wife went to India for delivery on 15Feb2010 and undergone a operation for that. She can come back to Qatar only in October 2010. By that time she will exceed six months stay outside Qatar. So her RP will expire on 15Aug10. Today morning i went to Gharafa Immigration department the captain told me that i can get return visa with the fine of QAR 500/- only after she completes her six month stay. My question is will there be any problem once it is expired.Please clarify. Thanks in advance.

kskumar, i quote your words "She can come back to Qatar only in October 2010. By that time she will exceed six months stay outside Qatar. So her RP will expire on 15Aug10"..

It's you who'd said that your wife's RP will get expired by AUG'10..and thus we gave the advise accordingly...thnx...

If the captain is ready to extend your wife's visa, well and gud...

Thank you very much to sonia and biju for your kind reply.... I think my question is not clear.....My wife RP Will expire only in october'10..... So the RP is still valid after Aug 15 also...More over she will fly to qatar in October.....Also i attached the birth cirtificate of the Baby.... the captain said it is enough.......Expecting your advice.....

No if no valid visa you can not use this facility, the only option she should come here on or before the visa expiry date by paying extra 500 Riyals for extension of stay.

I've even read it that if you provide any supporting documents like a medical certificate saying "she is having a complicated pregnancy and not advisable to travel till she recovers fully", they will charge you QRs. 2000/- for that if your application is approved. she can stay for one year outside Qatar then.(But i am not sure with this information.)

Kindly go through the below link related to your query..thnx

As far as i know, a visa can be renewed for 6 months by paying QR 500(if a person remains outside DOHA for more than a 6 month due to unavoidable circumstances)..However her RP is getting expired by AUG'2010..I am afraid if the immigration authorities would even agreed to extend it..For extending stay out of DOHA, one should be having valid RP..
