Baby's visa
Hi,my wife will be arriving with the new born baby next month. My wife is having RP upto september end. Our child will be 2 months and 6 days old when they arrive. So, is a Visa required for my child? I have heard that for 3 months no visa is required. So please let me know the rule for such a case. Thank you in advance
Thankyou all for your valuable replies.
The new rule states that - "If the birth was occurred outside the country and father and mother or one of them possess valid residence permit in the country, the new born baby can enter the country within two years from the date of birth."
Here is a link to the page which states the above:

Hope this helps.
A baby born out of DOHA if travels within 90 days (from its country of birth to doha) from the date of his/her born, there is no need of any VISA for new born..
The only thing is that both the parents should have valid RP inorder to bring the NEW BORN without visa..A baby can get visa on arrival..
Make sure that your wife should bring BIRTH CERTIFICATE alongwith her..

My friend. I suggest you to go personally to Immigration dept. and enquire everthing over there. You better try to get information from the typist over there. they are highly informative and updated.
DONT LISTEN TO NEGATIVE COMMENTS, SOME ONE MISGUIDE ME ALSO WHEN I BRING MY CHILD IT IS STILL 3 MONTH, AND I WAS FORCED TO BRING MY CHILD WITHIN 2 MONTHS, YOU CAN BRING YOUR CHILD WITHIN 90 DAYS AND DOES NOT REQUIRE ANY VISA. UP ON ARRIVAL THEY WILL GIVE YOU ONE MONTH VISA AND WITHIN ONE MONTH YOU NEED TO STAMP YOUR CHILD'S VISA. IT IS TOO EASY.
My baby came with mother without visa on 10th June while she was 2 months and 26days old. I didnt do attestation of her birth certificate. Now she has RP. nobody asked me for attestation. I dont know any new changes after that.
My friend, me too just got my baby visa stamped today only. when i checked, i came to know that it is for two [2] months only. New born Baby can travel anywhere with only passport without visa for two [2] months only. If it exceeds even one day, you have to apply for the sponsorship for the child. This is what recently updated. since my baby born in qatar, i got it done within two [2] months and each day penalty will be Qrs. 10/- will be charged.
If the age of your new born baby is less than 3 month no need for visa, but the birth certificate should be there and it should be attested by Qatar embassy in your home country.
I did this way when I brought my daughter 3 month ago, she was 40 days old only.
Visa is not required for a baby of lessthan 3 month old who will accompany his/her mother. Visa will be issued after their arrival on condition that mothers passport must carry a valid RP.
