Thank you qatarisun for the website that you gave. However, I just browsed that website and I noted that applying for tourist visa requires confirmed booking in a hotel. My friend in Dubai does not need to get booking in a hotel as he could live in my villa during his stay here in Qatar. Is anybody here who had experience to secure tourist visa for a friend in GCCs (ex. Dubai)and did not secure any hotel booking? Could my friend make use of my name as sponsor and get the address of my villa in lieu of hotel booking? Do I need to prepare invitation letter to support his application for tourist visa? I appreciate and welcome any information related to my situation. Thank you guys....
