Documents Attested for Family Residents Visas
Sorry just another boring Visa type question.
I need to get my marriage certificate attested (Legalized) by the Qatar Embassy / Consulate in the same country it was issued.
As my marriage certificate was issued in Hong Kong (as that's were I got married) in theory i would get it attested by the Qatar Consulate in Hong Kong.
..1st problem there is NO Qatar Consulate in Hong Kong.
I read somewhere that in these cases you would normally use the next closest Consulate or Embassy to that country which in this case would by China.
..2nd problem I can't find an agent in China to do this for me and it's not practical for me to get a visa to go to China and try and do this.
I'm really struggling to find anyone who can offer any advice on if there are other options.
I currently live in Saudi so the document has already been through the pain of getting attested by the Saudi Consulate a couple of years ago.
..I did call the Qatar Embassy in Saudi and ask them if there are allowed to Attest the document but they said no.
I also asked the Qatar Embassy in London if they could do it (with my being a UK national) but they said no.
I've tried contacting the Qatar Embassy in Thailand and asking them if they can do it (Hong Kong is at least close ish to Thailand!) but got no answer. (I need to get my daughters birth certificate attested in Thailand anyway as we lived in thailand when she was born, but that's another story).
If anyone has come across a similar problem or has any good ideas of who might be able to help I'd really appreciate your feedback.
..I'm open to any suggestions and am happy to use agents / middle men / etc if it gets the job done.
Thanks in advance
What Sarfraz has advised should work and solve the issue. I had an almost similar issue couple of years back and the matter was resolved with the assistance of the Shariah court in Doha. By the way, I believe if your marriage certificate has been attested earlier by the Saudi consulate as you have stated, then possibly it may be acceptable to the Qatari government without any further attestations. Try to find out.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks! http://millerscandy.com/

After you get it attested by concern ministry in HK take it to ministry of Attestation, Qatar located at C-ring road, Najma area for Qatar attestation, i think it would cost you just 20 riyal
I think you don't need to go to Beijing before you get it done, make inquiring from HK if you can send documents through courier or not, if possible you will just pay courier to - fro, and at the same time check for nearest Hk embassy. mail them for inquiring....very simple as ABC
Hello
I have the same issue but with my daughter's Hong Kong birth certificate so if anyone found a company that could help or a way to do this without going to Beijing I would be incredibly grateful if you could share.
Hi Hamlay,
How's your situation? I am just about to start your process to get the marrirage certificate sorted in HK. Could you share your experience.
Many thanks
Many thanks Sir,
That sounds like an interesting option that needs some more investigation on my part.
Thanks again
