Visit Visa

Darlington
By Darlington

I'm entering Doha on a work visa (which I have received this morning) but I will be accompanied by my husband and son who will have to enter on a visit visa. We are all UK passport holders so can they get their visit visas upon arrival at Doha International Aiport? Is the visit visa the best option or would a tourist visa suffice? How much? Any additional documents needed - for example a letter from my company.

Thanks

Darlington,

Visa upon arrival is the only option for your family. They will get their passports stamped at the airport, pay 100QAR per visa, and in 3 minutes they are in.

This visa CAN be extended (don't listen to humanresources .. wow 'HR' doesn't know the simplest HR rules..) for another 30 days for the same fee - QAR.100

they will be allowed to stay for 1 month and cannot be extended.. must exit then re-enter.

Visit visa on arrival is best option, charges on arrival 100 QR each member, no documents require, only their passports are enough.
