Need Urgent Advice
By Ehsaan.Jeelani •
Hello Eyeryone.
Hope you guys are doing good. I need some urgent advice on the travel plan. I have a business visa which in valid till 22 Aug 2016, Since normaly entry stamps vary from 15 days to 30 days. My question here is:
1: If I land into Qatar lets say on 10th Aug, after which my visa validity is only 12 days. How is it possible they can give me 15 or 30 days entry chop?
2: Is it better to get a new visa which would atleast be valid for for more than a month so that there wont be any confusions?
Please advise.
Best Regards.
Just please note that Visa Validity and Duration of stay is two different things.
During Visa validity, you can enter in country and that is when counter for duration of stay will start.

Thank you very much for your advice :)
Further to the "Sheen Services" comment, for better clarification to Ehsan,
You have to enter Qatar on or before 22 Aug 2016. Once landed, please forget about the date mentioned in visa (in this case 22 Aug 2016). You have a stay validity of one month (extendable for another two months) from the day of landing. Hope it is clear
Dear Sir,
After the issue of business visit visa you have three months time to land in Qatar. After landing in Qatar you have one month to stay. If you want you can extend the stay for two more months.
Bottom line is that after issue of visa you have three months to enter Qatar and after entering you have three months to stay.

Appreciate your helpful response.
@Ismail. you mean although my visa which was issued on 24-05-2016 and valid till 22-08-2016, i can still use it even i travel just 12-15 days from its expiry? And is this visa extendable as well?
If you arrive in Qatar on 10 Aug (for example), you can stay up to 9 September without any issue. And the sponsor can extend it for further 2 months (i.e. up to 9 November). However, it cannot extend further and you have to leave Country. Hope it is clear.
Dear Ihsan,
If you on 10 Aug (for example), you can stay upto 9 September without any issue. And the sponsor can extend it for further 2 months (i.e. up to 9 November). However, it cannot extend further and you have to leave Country. Hope it is clear.
