Hello guys,
can anyone tell me what kind of letter of invitation that they need in Qatar embassy Philippines. Because my mother went there and they didn't approve my mother's visa cause they need a letter of invitation from the sponsor or affidavit of support why they need those documents even I'm the sponsor of my mother. if ever I'll make a letter of invitation does the Airport Immigration in Philippines will grant it?,
Thanks.

Unfortunately yes, you need to show them some money and give it to them.. :) Yes, most of the people in the immigration will extract money from first time OFWs (or former OFWs) so that they will allow the poor kabayans to exit Philippines and work for their family. That's the sad truth..

This is why most of them went to other Asian countries first before going to Middle-East or abroad.

Hi,

I entered Doha from Singapore using the visa copy and passport only.

Only in the Philippines you will experience much hassles.

Cheers!

Kabayans. The Qatar Embassy in Philippines accepted the "authorization" for authentication of visa!

my Filipino friend went here in Doha from Manila to Bangkok to Doha. He got refused to exit Manila by the officers of immigration due to his business visa. but all of his documents are genuine and original. he left Manila going to Bangkok then to Doha... now he's here working.

you may also need you and your mothers authenticated nso birth certificate and let her red ribboned it at our Department of Foreign Affairs so that it can also be a proof to the NAIA that you are truly related to each other as mother/son. you really need a salary certificate too and send it to your mother in order to prove to the NAIA immigrations officer that you can support your mother's financial expenses such as food,transportation, housing and other miscellaneous expenses while she is in qatar.

i was offloaded last sept. 30, 2012 at naia immigration my visa was a business visit visa applied/bought for me by my prospective employer in qatar it is valid from july 2012 to october 2012 ( 1 month). now, i already have a workvisa sent to me by my prospective qatari employer through email which they bought/applied from qatar ministry of interior. i'm planning to travel to singapore as a tourist first then proceed to qatar, what would i need to do? do i need to go to qatar embassy in singapore and have it stamp? or just buy a ticket and go? i have inquired at Philippine Overseas Employment Agency and they told me the requirements for me to be hired directly by my qatari employer, one of the requirements is the employment contract which is needed first to be authenticated by Phil. Embassy in Qatar, but unfortunately, my prospective qatari employer refused to abide by this procedure and instead, they send me the above mentioned new workvisa, they also adviced me instead to travel first to singapore or hongkong as tourist, then travel to doha. will the immigration officers in singapore/hongkong allow me to exit/travel to doha, qatar even though the workvisa is not stamp on my passport?

hi,

thank you for the response.

I'm just confuse if ever I'll make my own letter of invitation as per your suggestion,like a normal invitation right?, without the approval of the consular of Phil.Embassy Qatar,(stamp,consul signature,etc; ) are the immigration officer in NAIA will grant it as a Legal Document?

cause right now I'm having a conflict in my company asking a salary certificate as 1 of the requirements for applying "affidavit of support" issued by Philippine Embassy Qatar.

Philippine Embassy Qatar "Affidavit of Support" Requirements:

1. Salary Certificate

2. Passport copy of the sponsor

3. Passport copy of the visitor

4. Visa copy

5. 100 Riyals (for the form, ink of stamp and pen) corrupt!

Hi. Just make a letter to the addressee indicating the purpose of the visit and that you will take care of the needs of the visitor preferably in company letter head. For direct relative usually affidavit of support from the embassy here is not needed but for assurance you may want to get one. Send her these letters, your PP, QID, employment certificate and RT tickets and she will be fine. That is provided your mom is not more than 60 years old. Good Luck.

the letter of invitation required by the embassy of Qatar for visa authentication is different from the affidavit of support required by Philippine immigration.

The letter of invitation is a simple letter from the sponsor indicating that he is a resident of qatar and is inviting the visa holder to come and visit qatar.

In the earlier days in Dubai we used to write a letter that indicates your relationship, employment, passport and hereby assurring the support for accomodation, financial needs of the visitor or relative- yan po ang affidavit of support and was presented to the immigration.

Recently po - we need to get this forms sa Consular offices and need to be attested by Dubai Ministry of Interior-

This is the way the things might be happenning in Qatar.
