U can get visa only upon arrival but depends on nationality..only Westeners, Europeans etc can get visa upon arrival in Doha,,but if u are Filipina u have to contact Travel Agencies...TRY FAHAD TRAVEL ..google it and find their contact number..I worked in Qatar for 5yrs and got married there last July 12 only..my husband need to send me here in Dubai while processing my husband visa/family visa..now if they can't finish my Family visa on this month, i will probably get tourist visa by end of this month...I am filipina by the way presently staying here in Dubai...I know one guy there who's processing tourist visa and it costs maybe around 1k Riyals or more not sure yet plus 2 way ticket..(Qatar Airways or Fly Dubai) once ur on tourist visa u have to show 2 way ticket (return) and sometimes looking for show money like 5,000 riyals or Dhs...GOOD LUCK!

aside from gulf paradise hotel, are there any other hotels that does hotel visa without requiring you to make a booking with them? or travel agency that can help me get a visit visa? is it also true that you need a "show money" of USD1370 when you enter qatar? thank you so much.

if i get a visa from the hotel, it also follows that i need to have a booking with them. is that right? thank you again for all your help. :)

U will not get a visa on arrival, tht will depend on the passport u hold. Cleopatra Travels don't do it anymore, so the 2 options u have is hotel or ur friend must get u a visit visa....best of luck

i was told that cleopatra charges around 700 bucks for a tourist visa. other hotels might also do it but they charge like 1000 riyals for a one month visit.
