Family stay in home country
Family stay in home country
Hi guys,
My family has gone back to home country for some times. Now for how much maximum time could they stay over there? Remember I already have family RP.
Regards

If they stay longer than 6 months the RPs will be automatically cancelled. Upon reaching close to the 4th-5th month you should go to immigration authorities and ask for an extension of the "outside Qatar" stay (provided your case is solid and you pay the fees) to avoid any cancellation. Regards!! PS: do a search since this topic has had several (I would say too many) discussions in QL. Answered on Sun, 27/05/2012 - 8:35am

They can not stay more than 6 months outside qatar but you can extend it for another 6 months by applying their return visa to immigration office and pay QR500/head. Answered on Sun, 27/05/2012 - 8:39am
