How do you enquire whether you have a travel ban in place or not?

Although Qatar enacted a new labour law recently, some things, like travel bans, still exist. A travel ban is usually placed on individuals who have criminal/civil cases against them.

If you are planning to leave the country and feel you may have a travel ban circular in place, this is how you officially verify it. If you do have a travel ban, then you should settle it with competent authorities within the country.

Here are step-by-step instructions about enquiring about travel bans.

 

1. Go to http://portal.www.gov.qa/ and login using your smart card.

2. Select the required transaction type (personal for smart card owner or company name for authorised person).

3. Click on ‘General Services,’ then select ‘Inquire About Travel Ban.’

4. Use the page ‘List of Travel Ban Circulars’ to view the circulars recorded on your ID number and the commanding entities.

5. After logging in to the service, the system will show a list of travel ban circulars (if any).

6. In case of no recorded circulars, the system will display a message stating so.

 

Alternately, you can also inquire about it online by filling up an online form Here
