Urgent help return permit visa

Dear all,

I need to apply for a return permit visa for my wife who has been out of the country for almost 7 months.

After reading various posts i am unsure what the validity period of the return visa is.  Some say 1 month whereas others say 14 days.

Does anyone have first hand experience what the exact validity period is of a return permit visa once it has been issued.

So for example if this visa is issued on 1/6/2014 how long does my wife have to return back to Qatar using this visa and therefore not have her RP cancelled.

Your help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

you have pay 500 Qr as late penalty and they issue one permit with 7 days validity. I have done it before for my family. Go to the immigration and clear you doubt.

6 months outside the country and your visa will be voided. You can proceed to Immigration and request for extension and you will just pay a certain amount.
