Visa Extension

A transit visa is a type of travel authorization that enables you to travel via another nation before arriving at your final destination. A transit visa for the Schengen Area is necessary, for instance, if you are flying from India to the US but need to stop in the Schengen Zone before continuing to the US.

Since transit visas are temporary and typically not necessary for everyone, it is crucial to check with an embassy or consulate before your trip to determine your eligibility.

Documents Required for Transit Visa Qatar are as follow

  • You must apply using the Visa application form or Form V1.
  • Carry the original and a photocopy of your valid passport which has a validity of at least 6 months.
  • Copy of the Qatari residence ID or permit.
  • 2 passport size photographs.
  • The Visa processing time for the non-residents is 5 days.
  • Photocopy of to and fro flight tickets.
  • A current passport must be shown in order to apply for a visa. The validity of the passport must be six months beyond the applicant's expected stay in Qatar. The new visa must be printed on blank pages in the passport.
  • An official letter from the applicant's employer must be included with any business visa applications. However, if they are requesting a tourist visa, they must provide an invitation letter outlining the purpose of their trip to Qatar.
  • An application or a letter is required to be submitted.
  • Every visa application has to be accompanied with 2 coloured passport size photographs of the applicant.
