Citizens of about 102 nationalities can enter visa-free (Visit Qatar says this replaced the term 'visa on arrival'). Bring a passport valid at least 3 months, a return ticket and proof of accommodation.

At the border

  • Passport must be valid for at least 3 months from the date of arrival.
  • Show a return flight ticket and proof of accommodation (hotel booking covering the whole stay, or hosting by family or friends registered on Hayya).
  • Visitors on a Hayya e-Visa or visa-free entry may not work in Qatar.
  • US passport holders use the 'Visa-Free for US Citizens (F1)' route on Hayya; Visit Qatar describes it as valid two years with stays up to 90 days each.
  • The old printed Hayya Card is no longer valid for entry.
