Difference between the Qatar eVisa, Visa on Arrival, and Hayya Card

Qatar also offers a ‘Visa on Arrival’. Check the differences between the VOA and the Qatar eVisa, and find out which visa suits your needs more. The Hayya Card was used during the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

The conditions of each visa differ per nationality, such as costs, requirements, eligibility, and validity.

Qatar eVisa

The electronic visa system requires travelers to apply online before visiting Qatar. Applicants must complete a simple online form, provide the necessary documents, and pay the visa fee electronically. The application is processed before travel, and if approved, the eVisa is sent via email.

The benefit of the Qatar eVisa is that you don't have to stand in queues at the airport and have peace of mind before you go, knowing that your travel documents are in order.

Qatar Visa on Arrival

Qatar allows citizens from over 95 countries to use its visa-on-arrival service. This means eligible travelers can enter Qatar and get a visa at the airport, instead of applying beforehand.

You must meet the following requirements according to the Qatar visa policy:

  • Be a citizen of an eligible country. The full list can be found here.

  • Have a valid passport with a minimum validity of six months from the arrival date.

  • Have a valid hotel booking for the duration of their stay.

  • Purchased health insurance from one of the companies registered with the Qatar Ministry of Public Health.

Passengers from Pakistan and India might also require the following:

  • Proof of enough funds (such as bank statements) or an International Debit/Credit Card, under their own name, with a minimum balance of QAR 5000.

Extra rules for visitors from India, Pakistan, Iran, and Thailand:

  • Confirmed hotel reservation through the Discover Qatar website only. Hotel reservations from other websites will not be accepted.

Hayya Card

The Hayya Card was a mandatory entry requirement for travelers entering Qatar during the 2022 FIFA World Cup. It also acted as a replacement for a tourist visa during that period.

The card is not valid anymore as a visa, its validity ended in January 2023. Please apply for an eVisa or Visa on Arrival instead.
