Qatar entry requirements for Mexican citizens

How long you can stay

Up to 30 days per visit.

What you need

• Passport valid for at least 3 months on arrival (MOI). Note: GOV.UK, Auswärtiges Amt, France Diplomatie, Canada and NZ advise at least 6 months — carry 6 months to be safe with airlines
• Confirmed return or onward ticket
• Confirmed hotel reservation in Qatar for the visit, or a clear address of a friend/relative where you will stay
• Health insurance from an insurance company accredited by Qatar's Ministry of Public Health (MOI lists it as a condition of the on-arrival visa; GOV.UK/Auswärtiges Amt describe it as mandatory for stays over 30 days)

Good to know

Qatar MOI page 'Free on-Arrival Tourist Visa valid for 30 days (extendable) for 39 countries' lists Mexico: 'The nationals of following countries are granted free on-arrival visa for a period of (30) days extendable for a similar period.' Conditions: passport valid at least three months; confirmed return ticket; confirmed hotel reservation at any hotel in Qatar during the visit or a clear address of the stay; health insurance from an accredited insurance company. Extension: one further 30 days (so up to 60 days in total) through the Ministry of Interior before the first 30 days expire; the extension fee was not confirmed on a primary page read. Conflict noted: MOI requires passport validity of 3 months, but several travellers' governments (GOV.UK, Auswärtiges Amt, France, Canada, NZ) say 6 months; MOI is the controlling authority, documentsNeeded flags both. Health insurance: MOI lists 'Health insurance from an accredited insurance company' as a condition of every on-arrival category and its Entry Permits page says 'A valid health insurance policy from insurance companies registered with the Ministry of Public Health is required to enter Qatar', while GOV.UK and Auswärtiges Amt say it is compulsory for stays over 30 days (GOV.UK: standard premium QAR 50 per person per month). VisitQatar notes 'Visa-free entry is now the new term defining previously visa on arrival. Nothing changed except the name.' Entry is at the discretion of the border officer.
