On Arrival Visa

Rinas Haniffa
By Rinas Haniffa

I am Rinas, Sri Lankan, currently living in KSA, travelling to Qatar coming month for a short visit. I have the approved profession resident permit for an on arrival visa but as per the rule i must have to have 6 month validity of my resident permit. Unfortunately, the day i am travelling and expiry are in exactly 6 month difference. Could you please anyone advice me on this, if i am not eligible, what is the other best option to get a visa?

I do not know how far I am correct, I understand for GCC countries the PP and RP validity is 3 months, if you are a GCC resident, - you can check with the Qatar Embassy in KSA

none...your rp should be valid for 6 months...you will neither be issued a visa nor a ticket. you will be denied then and there. so please extend your residence first and then travel peacefully.
