I had to laugh at the financial requirements.
last 3 bank statements showing at lesat 850 pounds !
They must think the Uk has economic refugees want to escape for a better life in Qatar LOL
i can't wait to see how they handle the issue of the destination address not being a hotel.. mmm are you going to stay with someone who is not related to you ? mm we need proof, blood test, sample, signed affivdat.
if anyone knows what scenario is going to come up with this , let me know please, because my parents are coming out here for the birth of their only grandchild and I know qatar embassy will probably screw it up!.
Anyway damm pain in the back side announcing it so late.
my retired parents are booked to come here mid may, great if the qatar embassy screws up send your personal documents ( including your passport ) in the post back to you! they must be really stupid, everyone knows you never send passports by post. better to pick up or courier.
visa fees payable with postal order, please get into the 21st century. If i have to pay arrival visa with credit card, then we should do it at the embassy as well.
One month tourist - all nationalities: £ 20
(Please provide 3 months bank statements)
Six months tourist multi - British passport only: £ 85
(Each stay is one month only)- great if you are not a british national ( like my father !)
the above figure is from their website, but you know how things are, given that their website is not updated properly.
I think qatar airways should reimburse all tickets not used because the state didn't plan this.
if companies are unhappy about this, then maybe they should vote with their air tickets. Use qatar airways for short hauls to bahrain, UAE and get connecting flights to destinations.
Additional
if you have family who are visting you here briefly and then you all go on holiday together and fly back to doha. does that mean visa is cancelled? meaning you need several visa applications?( multiple visa only for UK passport holder )
bit of a revenue generator right ?
for any brits that want it
here is the page on visa requirements. you can see it contradicts itself at the top and the bottom.
