"OK to Board" Message on Ticket PNR?

Hi,

I'm from India and have received a copy of work visa from my employer. My employer asked me to book the ticket and will reimburse once I reach Qatar. When I booked the ticket with Qatar Airways, I was told that my employer has to contact Qatar Airways in Doha and ask them to update the ticket PNR with the message - "OK to Board". Otherwise, I will be stopped from boarding the flight in India. Is this true? Thanks.

Hi Admin,

this is Usman.

I need your assistance in my following mater:

I’m working in KSA and my company transferred me to Qatar and company issued me an E visa for Qatar(from Qatar branch) , at the moment I’m going on leave to Pakistan and final exit.

Should I need to have any process regarding the visa in Pakistan or I can directly travel to Qatar form Pakistan with E visa.

Kindly advice.

travel agent from the company who hired you must contact qatar airways in order for you to board the aircraft

Basically your employer varified your visa with local Qatar Airways agent here in Doha. This is the only way ticket agent in Indian can be sure that you have valid visa to travel and they can issue a ticket. Thats all.
