also for how much time period can i get vsit vsa( for how much time can i stay there). can i extend it after that
thanks a lot

Tell your husband to ask his company to provide you a 3 months business visa on their sponsorship. It can be renewed for another 3 months. Your husband will shoulder all the expenses though, I dont think the company will refuse. Visa cost only QR75???(exactly not sure how much)
