Need your expertise..

My parents (both Filipino,working as Accountant & residing in Saudi Arabia)are planning to celebrate xmas here in Doha this coming Dec. And I read that any GCC that has a residence card can enter Doha for a minimum of 14 days? Is it true?

My friend there is nothing to do with nationality as long as they hold a valid residence permit in other GCC country and hold a return ticket, but make sure their visa category is not labour (most saudi companies stamp profession as labor or skilled worker to get the visa passed). If their visa is a professional one they can easily enter for 14 day without any hinderence. To be on a safe side, visit the immigration at airport and ask them.

With filipino nationality. I dont think they can obtain visa on arrival.(my own opinion).

I knew american passport can get visa upon arrival As my experienced.

Good luck
