Both my sister and limafoxtrot's mother were over 70 when they visited!

Both were visiting from UK so, as I said before, I don't know if the situation is different for other nationalities.

You cannot get a visit visa for ur father since he is above 60. You can only get a two weeks tourist visa which they say cannot be extended, but if ure lucky they just might extend it like i did for my mom n dad.

It cost 100qr for 1 month. Check the website out, it has some useful information.

Oh, and for whatever reason, they only accept payment by a Visa card! They won't take cash or payment with a debit card.

My 74 year old sister came from UK to Doha to visit me for a few weeks in February of this year. I travelled over with her and we simply purchased a visitor's visa for her at immigration, over the counter. I believe it was valid for 4 weeks. Can't remember the cost, but it wasn't loads.

She is a UK citizen. I don't know how it is for other nationalities.

I am uncertain of visa issuance for elders above 70's. Check with immigration.
