I got a 30 day visa when I arrived at the airport in Doha. Where do I go to extend it for another 30 days? Thank you in advance for your reply!

I belive what insaf said is correct. you must have come in some other visa. for extending visit visa the process is as insaf told.

InSaf I wont trust you because I went there this morning to extend a 30 day visitor's visa. I did NOT need any medical or blood test. Maybe it depends on what passport you have. I was extending it on a UK passport.

Pretzel go to the airport park in the normal parking. But do not walk to the airport. Instead walk towards a turn style gate facing the big mosque. Go thru the gate, cross the street and you will see a long white building.

Go there. Walk to the main entrance go inside to your left you will see desk 10 (or 11). Go there. It costs 100 riyals.

I will warn you though. They don't give you 30 days on top of your last 30 days. They seem to give you 30 days from when you get it extended...

I was in & out in less than 5 minutes.

As far as I know you cannot extend this one month airport visa. You have to exit Qatar or pay fine for overstay. Fine is quite heavy.. so please checkout and be careful!

I intended to do a thread on this subject as I spend all of yesterday morning trying to get the same thing done.

I am off to the airport to get it done as apparently it cannot be done at the post office or madinah khalifah....

Will let you know how it goes...
