Qatar: Issuance of Short-Term Work Visas and Other Visitor Visas Resumes
January 12, 2023
Effective immediately, foreign nationals can again apply for short-term work visas, family visas and visitor visas for entry into Qatar, following a decision from the Ministry of Interior and Qatar’s Financial Center. The visa application process had been suspended due to the FIFA World Cup Tournament in November 2022. Delays in processing are expected due to a potentially larger than usual volume of applicants who have been waiting for visas.
