Residence permit

My family can only stay for a couple of weeks in Qatar for a visit. They will re-enter Qatar after a few months to stay for good. For the two weeks they're in Qatar, can they apply for a residence permit, submit all necessary documentations or requirements and go out of the country?

Thanks so much for your valuable information. What is the average waiting time before they get their RP?

The Family HAS to stay in Qatar until they get Their RP. If they Leave, the application will be canceled and they will have to apply when they come back,

interesting question, I'm not absoultely sure, but I guess if you are sponsoring your family yourself then it should be ok - the whole process takes forever anyway so it seems a good plan. You can track progress on the MOI website which is really good. I would suggest you start the process as soon as they arrive on their first trip.

Good luck!
