Hi All, happy new year.
can anybody clear up a visa question for me? When a visitor comes into Qatar, the visa stamp says one month:
Is this one calendar month i.e., 1st January to 1st February or is it 28 days, this is important as we can extend the visa for another month bu get fined QR100 per day if you are late.

Please help if you know the definitive answer

Hi thanks for your answer but my question still is: is that one calendar month say from 1st January to 1st February or for 28 days, also with a UK passport we can extend the visitor visa for another month.

It is one month from the date of entry in Qatar. You must go through a medical test should you desire to extend your visa after the first month.
