Hello Friends,

I have got a job offer with Qatar airways (Manager position). I heard that it is difficult / not possible to bring your parents on visit visa to Qatar if they are above 60 (both my parents are above 60, in fact dad is 68). I come from India.

Can you let me know the rules ?

Thanks in advance

Rash.

Hi UkEng,

Would you please describe which Immigration office should I be heading for this purpose. Is it the one in Madinat Khaleefa?

Thanks in advance.

I brought my father last year here and he was 69...I got visit family visa for 6 months...either your company can do it, either you should go to the emmigration dept. and they will send you to somebody from there to sign the request for you, that will be like an approve.
