4. Some tips for Argentine citizens about visa application and entry procedures from Qatar Immigration Services

• Apply for a visa well in advance, at least one week before your flight to Qatar, to avoid any delays.
• Once your visa is approved, it is electronically linked to your national passport. If your passport gets lost or damaged, you will need to apply for a new visa. Make sure to use the same passport that was used during the visa application process when entering the country.
• Citizens with eligible passports, such as those from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Schengen countries, Australia, or New Zealand, can apply for a three-month validity visa.
• If the requirements for the Qatar e-Visa or Hayya Entry Visa are not suitable for your travel plans, you can apply for a traditional visa at the Qatar Embassy. If you are coming from another country, please check the eligibility requirements on our website.
• Carefully plan your travel arrangements before applying for the visa. Any changes made after payment will be considered a new application and may incur additional charges.
• The permitted duration of stay for every visa is 30 days. Overstaying beyond this period will result in a penalty of 200 QAR (approximately $55) per night.
• You can easily track the status of your visa application online by using the Qatar visa status tracking service.
• While travel insurance is not a mandatory entry requirement, it is highly recommended for any overseas trip.
• Generally, the Qatar e-Visa or Hayya Entry Visa allows international visitors to enter the country through Hamad International Airport (Doha), which is the hub for the national airline, Qatar Airways.
