Of course! You have to be able to prove that you are married, therefore legally allowed to reside with your wife in the same house. This IS a Muslim country and everything needs to be proved.

they do not need to travel outside Qatar but you will need to pay QR 500 per visa extra for them not to leave Qatar when changing visit to RP.

No you have to submit an application to the labour department.

for that you have to submit your salary proof( above 7K)

bank statements for six months

educational certificates,

housing proof,

No Objection Letter from sponsor.

it is very simple but you have to get the documents in order.

get the support of your Mandoob.

no You do not need to travel out of Doha...

All the best.
