Tourist Visa from US?

Hi-
I've been getting mixed answers. My sister in law is coming to visit us from the US. She has an American passport with a toursit visa. Does she need to be accompanied by a male?
Also, I am living in Qatar with my husband on his visa. Does he need to accompany me to enter and exit the country?
Thanks!

she'll issue a visit visa upon arriving at the airport good for 2 weeks. valid for an additional 2 week extension

but

ive recently heard ppl flying in from the uae need to issue a visa ahead of time regardless of the nationality.

Perhaps its only for the residents of Uae?

better call the airport up and confirm

My sister has come in on a UK Passport on her own a couple of times, never had problems.

My wife takes the kids in and out no problem, and if your husband is your sponsor then you don't need an exit permit.

Just make sure she is curteous and polite not Gung Ho and demanding.
