Qatar Extends Visas 1 Month for Stranded Travelers

Qatar's Ministry of Interior automatically extends all entry visas that expired or near expiry since February 28, 2026, by one month with no fees required. This measure supports travelers stranded amid the country's airspace closure triggered by regional tensions, including Iran's retaliatory strikes and Israel-US-Iran attacks. The process runs electronically without visits or applications needed, though pre-February 28 overstay fines must still be paid.
