MinimumSalary For family visa raised to QR10,000

The Passports and Expatriates Division of the Ministry of Interior has announced that expatriates who wish to apply for family visa should henceforth have a minimum salary of QR10,000 per month, a local Arabic daily reported yesterday.
Applications for family visas will from now on be scrutinised by a committee constituted in the ministry on the directive of the Cabinet. Earlier it was handled by the standing committee for recruitments in the Ministry of Labour.
The minimum salary requirement was earlier QR7,000. It was later increased to QR8,000 and now it has been further increased to QR10,000.
The committee will apply rigid procedures to check the veracity of each application, the daily has added.

Only Money talks, Love and effection not exist any more!

10000 Qr in not enough for a family in Qatar . The government is trying to avoid problems of unemployment and living below the standard .in the beginning people accept any salary to move to Qatar ,after that they bring their families then complain about the prices of everything.we create our own problems

separating families dat want to stay together is not fair, i think d authorities should advice a means of bring together families that wants to stay together and not to separate them.

and there is talk that immigration guys will also carry out suprise checks on the family accomodation mentioned in the application to reduce or minimize the practice of several families sharing a villa or flat and living more like the bachelors
