Hi Guys,

I am in Qatar right now on visit visa and work permit visa is in process that I assume will take another 6 weeks.

Appreciate,if anyone can answer my queries.

1. Even if I have visit visa can I bring my wife and kid on visit visa.

2. How long they can stay with me on their visit visa. My visit visa will extend till I will get work permit.

3. Once I will get my work permit, can I convert their visit visa to dependent visit with my sponsership. Whether they need to travel out of country for the same.

Please suggest.

Thanks,

Sanjit

Mohamedkarim, I think there is no minimal salary requirement to get visit visa for family, Salary certificate is required to be presented to get residence permit only. If I am right, then you can apply for family visit visa for your wife by presenting the properly attested marriage certificate. But still check with authorities or wait for other replies.

Pls explain me how i'll apply fir visit visa for my wife and my kid?

What are the needed documents?

Bcz Im working for company more then two years on work visa by company sponsor ship. Now I am willing to bring my wife for 6 months. And my basic salary is 2000 QR. But Im getting more then 2000 QR as a commission. But If i request a salary certificate form my company they will give me as 2000 QR per month.

So, Is it possible to get my wife to qatar for 3 months by showing this salary certificate....?

you cannot bring them under your sponsorship while you are on visit visa (not sure what type of it.. Business? Tourist?), but they can try to get a regular tourist visa through the Hotel.

Once you got your Residence permit, you are eligible to sponsor your family, but only if you meet certain requirements, such as senior position, salary level, and other factors. After getting your RP you still normally need another 3 months to transfer your salary to the bank to prove your income.

Dear Sanjit,

1. You can't apply for your family (wife/kids) visit visa until you got your RP stamp on your passport.

2. After your RP stamp on your passport, you can apply for your family visit visa, initially 1 month after it you can extend it up to 5 more months.

3. In the mean time when your family will be in Qatar on visit visa you can apply and then after approval convert their visit visas in to RP (QAR 500/- fees will charge per visa conversion).
