From:

Date: 27 August 2014 14:54

Subject: Wednesday 17 Sept 2014 from 1000 – 1600 Thursday 18 Sept from 0900-1200 They will be available to all Australian citizens who require Consular or Passport assistance. They will be operating from the Business Centre at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Doha. [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Passport and Consular Services

Australian citizens who would like to submit passport applications or

discuss consular matters are welcome. Please approach the main reception

counter at Grand Hyatt Doha for directions. Information on the

requirements for passport applications can be located at

https://www.passports.gov.au/Web/index.aspx. It is important to ensure that

you meet the requirements for the correct sized photograph; guidelines can

be found at https://www.passports.gov.au/Web/Requirements/Photos.aspx.

Note: To avoid delays please ensure you provide photocopies of all relevant

documents that require “certified true copies” or “original sighted”. We

will require originals as well as photocopies of all supporting documents

for passport applications as we have to stamp them with “original sighted”

as well – this include forms of ID such as driver licences.

Police Clearances

We understand that the Qatari government now requires a police clearance as

part of applying for a residency permit. Australian police clearances are

issued by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) in Canberra or by State

Police - not by the Embassy. AFP applications forms are located on their

website at: http://www.afp.gov.au/what-we-do/police-checks.aspx.

As part of getting a police clearance we understand that the Qatari

government requires the signature on the clearance to be attested. This

should be done by an authorised official of the Department of Foreign

Affairs and Trade (DFAT) in Australia. You can find contact details for

DFAT offices at: http://dfat.gov.au/contacts.html. The Embassy in Abu

Dhabi can then attest the signature of the DFAT official. If you require

this service please fax Nadia Shalabi on + 971 2 4017501 a copy of the

Police clearance in advance of the consular visit to Doha, so the Embassy

can check the database for the relevant signature, in order to be able to

attest the original when it is presented to us in Doha.

We can only accept cash in UAE dirhams; we cannot accept Qatari Riyals or

credit cards since we do not have a Qatari bank account or credit card

facilities. Please ensure you have UAE dirhams with you to avoid any

delays.

If you have any questions regarding the above information, the Australian

Embassy in Abu Dhabi may be contacted during normal business Sunday to

Thursday (noting that the UAE is one hour behind Qatar) on telephone +971 2

401 7500 and by following the relevant prompts to be directed to the

appropriate area. Alternatively you can contact the Embassy by email on

[email protected]

Collecting Passports

If you have received a call from the embassy, and have arranged to collect

your new passport please ensure you bring the old passport with you to be

physically cancelled- otherwise we will not be able to hand over the new

document.

Visa/Citizenship/Immigration applications/enquiries

Embassy representatives coming to Doha to provide consular and passport

services are not and will not be in a position to discuss immigration

issues, or receive citizenship and visa applications. All such enquires

should be directed to the responsible organisation, the Australian

Consulate-General in Dubai on telephone + 971 4 5087200 or send an email to

[email protected]. You may also contact the Australian Visa

Application Centre (VFS) at Sherif Building, 5th Floor, and Opposite Toyota

Towers in Doha.

We look forward to assisting you with Consular and Passport services.

Yours sincerely

Consular and Passports Section
