Hi! I got here a month ago and my visa( it must have been a tourist visa) should expire tomorrow. Since my husband has an RP and he lives here I gave his address until I apply for an RP under his sponsor. Since his sponsor had to leave the country on family vacation I didn't have time to process the RP. We thought we might try our luck and see if we could get my visa extended and thank God it worked. We went to the ministry of interior building which is across the street from the parking lot( all the way back) with another name on it called passport and airport security. First we went to the airport( arrival)section where they have an immigration place but I think since it was like 5.00pm it was closed. Anyway we asked at the information counter about visa extention and she directed us even from where she stood to a building behind the "Click" billboard across the street from the airport. So we went there. Within the vicinity there are 2 or 3 smaller buildings for specificic travel needs. Go to the visa section. The actual counters for visa was closed but apposite those counters is a travel permit counter ( no.2) you can extend your visa there provided you have a debit or visa credit card to pay QR100 for the visa. It was pretty easy. They'll put a sticker with your name and 1 month visa on it. We were so happy we wanted to tell everyone about it. Until we get the RP process underway we have some peace of mind. Thanks to all those people who have provided some information on visa extension on qatarliving. It's a great site.
Anyway I am looking for DEWALT cordless drill batteries and board or wood that I can buy here in Qatar. Does anyone know where I can purchase them?
