Qatar Tourism announced that the "Hayya" platform — initially used to issue visitor visas for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ – has become the platform to obtain all tourist visas to the State of Qatar.
   The Hayya Platform will accommodate all requests received from all countries around the world including all professions.
     Key points about the application process:
• All visitors, including GCC residents of all professions, apply through www.hayya.qa to obtain their tourism visas. For GCC nationals, the Application provides an option to apply for a GCC Companion Entry Permit.  
• Visitors coming through the Abu Samra border crossing can now apply for the pre-registration service provided by the Hayya platform. This is an optional service.
• Holders of visas to and valid residencies in the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Canada, the Schengen countries, Australia or New Zealand can enter the State of Qatar without restrictions by applying through the Haya platform.
