Thanks for the replies.If the visitors wish to travel with us to Eygypt within their one month visa , would there be a problem in buying the tickets for them from Doha?

Below is the procedure:

1. They need to come on visit visa instead of tourist visa. Visit visa is for one month duration extendable to six months and is issued from immigration dept in madina khalifa. Tourist visa is issued for one month only, is not extendable and is issued from immigration office located near airport.

2. After entering Qatar, they need to go through medical check in order to get their visa extended for three months.

3. After clearing medical, visa needs to be extended and made multiple entry. This is also done from immigration dept in madina khalifa.

4. After getting above done, they need to get Saudi visa through any agent. Numerous agents are operating in Qatar for umrah visa.

Hope above helps.
