Hello,

There is a new regulation on the passengers from India who is travelling to Qatar with the "free on-arrival tourist visa". Some of the airports in India (not all, Hyderabad started first) is not allowing the ECR passport holders to travel to Qatar without a paper visa.

Since your mother has a valid issued visa, it wont be a problem. However, it would be better to talk to the Airline or Immigration office in India and they can provide you clear information.

Vidhya, Please do not worry at all, Qatar has nothing to do with ECR, ECR is concerned with INDIA only. That's an Indian option, now it has no value at all. ........ It was stopped some years ago. You just forget it ..............
