Asian but bristish pass port holder?
Hello!!! my friend ask me a favor to post her question?and she is needed to be adviced hope anyone can help her coz i cant...thank you for your comments and replys..the question is--She is an asian like me but holding a uk passport?she is travelling alone like myslef in qatar and we both meet there...anyway..do u think she will have problem getting a visa on arrival at doha airport beacuse she is asian?even if she is holding a bretish passport...?pls need your help we are on the way to qatar after few weeks...anyway she is married?
YEah, that's a point, have a credit card. When I came in as a tourist a few times before I moved here I never had a credit card and paying cash just took forever. As for the visa, the rules elude me, I have received 7 day, and one month visas, but never a clear explanation for the difference.
the fact is she has a british passport so she will have no probs.(unless its a fake passport). it will cost her QR-/ 100 for a 1 month visit visa (not sure if they are still doing the 14 day visa anymore) she will need a credit card to pay for this at immigration counter or just of to one side you can obtain a debit card for Qr-/ 20 (card)+ Qr-/ 100 (visa) (she can pay in pounds sterling they will do the exchange rate) from QNB please inform her of this as this is the only way they will accept payment at immigration.
cheers hope your friend enjoys her time here.
She's British. They pay the same fee at the airport as others and get the 7 day tourist visa after paying the fee. Just have a hotel name. No problemo.
kljljthanks for your reply...she is actually staying in the hotel but the hotel is not a five star one..its a buget hotel...does the imigration ask what she is doing in qatar for 6 days holiday ?If so? Liesure trip is enough reasons.pls need to know .... thank you....she is anyhow married? and have two children back in uk.and 6 days holiday with the return ticket.she just a bet worried because she is asian..and holding a brit pass port....

I know 'Brits' can just turn up but this girl is from SA with an Irish Visa, so at a guess she is traveling on a SA passport not a British one; if that is the case I am pretty sure needs a visa in advance...check with the SA Embassy.
hi there
I'm a british citizen, and brits can just turn up and pay the $30 dollars (or however much) to get a visa. The only concern they may have is the reason for her visit as a single female. If she gives the name of a female friend and confirms that she's staying with a female, or at a hotel, she should be fine.
theres no reason she would have any trouble, unless there is something particular about her situation. (i dont know how difficult it is to get a visa on a UK passport..)
cheers
