Here are the requirements for applying for family visa
Private sector employees should have technical or specialised (non-labour) professions and a minimum salary of QR10,000 to be eligible for family visa, Gulf Times reported the Ministry of Interior (MoI) as saying.
Those who have a minimum salary of QR7,000 can also apply, provided they are given free family accommodation by their employer.
Sharing information about the documents required for applying for a family visa in Qatar on their website, the MoI said: “Law No. 4/2009 that regulates the exit, entry and residence of expatriates in the country, permits foreign workers to bring in their families on residence visas, provided that they meet the following requirements and conditions”.
“The first requirement is that the applicant shall have a valid residence permit in the country. The applicant has to produce the marriage certificate attested by the competent authorities as required.
Government and semi-government employees have to submit the proof of family housing provided by their employer, or they have to produce the employment contract that specifically mentions family housing allowance will be provided. Besides, they have to produce an official letter confirming their profession and salary.
Private sector employees have to produce a six-month bank statement from one of the accredited banks in the country as proof of their salary being credited to their accounts every month.
They are required to submit notarised employment contract and copies of educational certificates to prove their profession.
In Qatar, family visas are generally issued for immediate family members like spouses and children. Parents and other relatives can be brought in on visit visas.
While male children aged 25 years and above are not eligible to be on either parent’s sponsorship, there is no age restriction for daughters, as long as they are not married. Competent authorities may waive these provisions in deserving cases.
In a recent post, the MoI has also specified the requirements for recruiting domestic workers. The first thing in such a case is to prove the need for a domestic help.
The number of people who are being recruited shall be appropriate for the number of family members. While considering the application, authorities may look into the health condition of the applicant to evaluate the need for such employment.
The applicant is expected to prove his ability to meet the financial obligations that would arise from employing household workers.
For recruiting agricultural workers, the permission will be given based on the size of the farm and the type of activity that will be conducted (like cultivating vegetables and fruits or raising livestock). A letter from the authority concerned has to be presented to substantiate the claim.

Folks
Here is my experience with house contract requirements.
First for immediate family visa (Wife / Kids) who you intend to convert to RP a house contract is a must. Until a few months ago it would work with out Baldiya attestation. But in order to ensure contracts are true they insist on having baldiya stamp. If you are leasing through a big developer/ company you may be lucky upon approval by the senior member at MOI for not having Baladiya stamp.
You never know .. :O)
ahahaha.. @britexpat kind a, like house contract w/o stamp from baladiya. :( i know sheen services wont answer me.

He applied in garafa immigration but rejected right away because of his profession in his ID as driver.. You got visit visa for your wife even your Visa is driver? @Adil1590
Hello Careers1, I got the visit visa for my wife the last time around I applied but now I want to apply for RP.
When did your friend apply? Did he meet the captain?
Hi Adil1590, i have a friend whose profession in ID is driver also, he tried to apply for RP/Visit visa for his wife even his salary is 10k but he couldn't. They advise him to change his profession on his ID and the profession must be related to your diploma or degree.
Professions on what? the visa or actual? I have driver visa but work as a Safety Officer salary above 10k? will I be able to get RP for my wife? Please guide
Can anyone advise if a wife can sponsor her husband.
this does not say anything about house contract? is it required?
Diploma Holders are facing a big issue for securing RP for their family. I fail to understand what is the logic for denying family RP for Diploma holders even though the salary is more than 15K QAR. This is very frustrating. Authorities at the Immigration counter just dont listen to what we are tryin to say they just reply "Diploma" no Family RP. Utter nonsense
Don't bring family here unsless you salary is min 15000-20000. Just earn, save and send it to your country. Even at 10,000 salary you will not save much if your family is here. Economically you need minimum 15000-20000 to live decent life here with your family and also to save some money.================I agree with you.
Absolutely right..

Is Baladiya attested House Rental agreement required for applying Family Visit Visa?
I agree with Tamil Expat. One of my friends visa got rejected because his degree was in IT and his visa was different. I don't know what is the reason the companies give visas that doesn't match their profession.
Dear,
The same issue with me having Mechanical Technician Trade on Visa and Studies as B-Tech in Civil Engineer the MOI reject the application due to Visa Trade is not eligible for family Visa.
Ask to company change the Visa Trade the said we don't have other Visa Title Quota.
please advise Mechanical Technician Visa Trade are eligible or not.
rock123 the question should be has anyone got the visa approved having technical or specialised (non-labour) profession?
Do anyone have the list of technical or specialised (non-labour) professions, who is eligible to apply for
family residence visa???
I have attested 3year Diploma in Mechanical engineering certificate and my visa is Supervisor.
Am I eligible to apply for family visa now.
Last time when I tried they refused saying Supervisor is not eligible to apply for residence.
what do they mean by "Private sector employees should have technical or specialised (non-labour) professions"????????
One of the important info missing is Visa trade should be matching your qualification. Last week my application has not been considered since my Visa trade is site engineer and I have studied mechanical engineering. So please note this point before submitting.
