Hi guys,
I m trying to get a Visa for my elder brother to bring him in Qatar. I have the following documents ready to submit it in the immigration dept.
1) Visa Application Form
2) Sponsor Letter mentioning Salary, position
3) My ID and Passport copy
4) My Brothers Passport copy
5) My wife's Passport n RP page (It is strange to take my wife's RP copy, but the lady sitting over there asked me to bring it with me)
6)Labour Contract copy

Inspite of showing all this the lady said you have to take the tourist visa from the airport or Hotel. Anybody having the same problem or if any1 interested to help me plz PM me
He is my real brother and i want to bring him on my Sponsorship. My profession mentioned in the ID is Sectretary and salary mentioned in the contract is 7500. I am here with my family. Please advise. Thanks in Advance...

Hi guys,

As per my experience before, they told me that they don't allow for brother to be sponsored to stay here for 6 months but you can get a tourist visa for one month (not extendable) at the airport immigration like what i did with my brother where you need birth certificates only and passport copy.

But sadly, i just went to the Airport Immigration the other day and the manager told me to go Main Office or any hotel to get tourist. My colleage did the same thing but they are saying they are not anymore issuing this one month visa. But, you can give a try.

Hope this helps.

I am going through same problem. They did not give visa to my brother as well. They say rules changed and now no visit visa for brothers. I am searching for solution for same since yesterday via hotel tourist visa. You may try for the same. Its a bit costly though from what I have searched.

Yes I did went to the Main immigration Office Gate no. 3 The first lady accepted it but asked for my Wife RP then again when I went with my Wife's RP copy to another lady She said you have to take Tourist Visa or Airport Visa. Does any one know any immigration person who can do this for me?

better go the main immigration office....the people there are nicer, all you need is the letter from your company...visa application form, paspport copy of your brother, your RP plus copy, debit/credit card...and that's it....bring a copy of your birth certificate and your brother's birth certificate, just in case they ask for a proof of your relationship....
