Submit the forms at Immigration in Garaffa ( 4890333) Building No. 4 1st floor( it is advisable to apply around 8-9)
then they will provide you with a small papers which indicates the number of your application forms.
most of the data is written in Arabic.
You much wait for atleast 10 days before your do the follow-up (this is based on my experience).
When the officer in charge in building No.4 1st floor says your documents is ready he will give you a paper about half of A4 crosswise and you must go to the No. 4
it is almost infront of Building No. 2.
Payment is to be made in cash Only 10.00 QAR
Then when you're done with the typing you must return to the officer in charge in Building No.4 1st Floor and return the form (half of A4 crosswise) for the signature and stamp.
The officer will probably ask you to return the next morning for the signed document.
When you return you will receive the document on the same building with signature and stamp.

He will then sign your newspaper and would ask you to wait and return after 3 days to check if your documents will be ready.
When your documents are ready, the officer in charge will put a no. behind the A4 form crosswise and will ask you to proceed to the very first building first floor ( location is just after you enter the gate of the immigration there is a door there near the guard its upstairs.
When you go there, the officer inside the room will give you a form, you have to do the typing thesame place as you go for the A4 form crosswise. Location is beside the photocopy area in front f Building 2.

next step is to go down on Building No. 1 ground floor.
proceed to the Number counter and the guy there will give you a number and ask you to proceed to lane 1.
you have to wait for your turn based from your number.

After paying the Lane 1 officer will stamp a copy of the RP on your new passport indicating your new name on the RP. he will return both passport and id to you and that completes the process for the RP transfer.
