Visa for Parent

Salam semua,

My parent and my auntie are planning to come. From what I know, Malaysians can get visa on arrival (VoA). To those yang pernah bawak parents/relatives:

1. VoA ni biasa berapa lama?
2. Kalau nk stay lebih dari tu, what is the procedure?
3. Boleh ke apply siap-siap visa utk diorang at the immigration office? (supaya senang 'cerita' di airport)

Shukran jazilan.

1. VoA hanya sah untuk selama 1 bulan sahaja
2. Boleh disambung selama 1 bulan lagi. Selepas itu, kena keluar dari Qatar (ke Dubai atau Bahrain) & masuk dengan VoA lagi. Hanya boleh buat dua kali sahaja
3. Selalunya boleh mohon VoA melalui kaunter di pejabat MOI Lapangan Terbang (antara terminal berlepas & terminal ketibaan). Kalau "mood" pak sheikh tu bagus, dapat lah.

Thanks Minah Kampung.

Alhamdulillah, parent & aunt selamat sampai. I have arranged meet & greet service from Al-Maha, so diorg tolong sambut kat kapa tebang, arrange for visa, amik bag & everything.

The only thing to do now is to extend their visa. Ada sesapa pernah buat dkt Airport Immigration Office?

saya pernah buat sekali ari tuh.. dalam compound MOI sebelah terminal airport tuh go to the second building dalam compound tuh.. ada tulis VISA kot kat building tuh.. tak sure sgt.. once masuk building tuh nampak cam kaunter pejabat pos kena beratur dulu..cakap nak extend visit visa...cam biasa bawak credit card.. satu pasport dia akan charge QAR100 utk extension for 1 month.. ari tuh saya buat jap jer tak sampai 10 minit pasal tak ramai org..

Brapa yang harus dibayar untuk meet&gret service from Al-Maha ye?

Amirasha,

Thanks for the info.
Bawak passport saja ke? Parent tak yah ikut kan?


Thinking,

Ada 2 rate: Gold - QAR260, Silver - QAR200. Untuk Gold, diorg 'collect' (tunggu) kat kapa tebang with name board. Silver ni diorg tunggu kat arrival hall je without name board.

Amik 'Silver' for my sister and she said they just shout her name at the arrival hall.
