I just received my Qatar resident permit a month ago and I want to visit Dubai this Eid holiday. Will they give me visa on arrival? I'm a Filipino. I heard about this 6 month rule validity of RP before one can travel to another GCC. I'm looking for reference in immigration website but can't find anything about this rule.

Thanks in advance for replies.
