RP Renewal Delay Fine
Hello Guys,
My Family came back to Qatar couple of days before and when i tried to renew their QID in metrash, there was a delay fine for not renewing their QID, mentioned for both of them. They exited Qatar one month before the airports were closed in Qatar. Is this fine valid? or is there any procedure to exempt it? Kindly share your inputs. Thank you!
Eyvaz Mammadli: Very surprising indeed.
When I was fined while working in another GCC country, the penalty was doubled for just asking "why". In my country, once a fine has been imposed, one can rub his nose on a rock, it cannot not be amended or reduced or cancelled except by the court of law.
goodlittleboy - you are not right.
There is such thing in Qatar. it is random fine.
immimoses, go directly to Qatar Immigration Department and inform them that you have fine in your Metrash, they will clear it and your ID will renew offline.
It is happened to me as well, inform situation clearly to them that fine is not because of you, it is because of Covid Situation.
Ha! Ha! Your query, "Is this fine valid" is really humorous. There is no such thing in any government of the world to my knowledge as a fine or penalty that is not valid.
If you are not happy with the fine imposed on you, you can always lodge a case against the government and fight it out in the court of law for its recovery. But first, you will need to pay.
It's as simple as that!
