Qatar (1) is a state located in Western Asia. It has a population of 3 million people and an area of 11,500 km2.
Citizens of some countries can travel to Qatar (2) for tourism purposes without a visa. The rest need to apply for a visa, which will be valid for up to 30 days with the possibility of an extension. It is also possible to obtain an e-tourist visa for Qatar.
It’s possible to get residence permit in the form of work visa or investment program. For instance, if an investor will purchase real estate from $200,000, he can get a residence permit in the country.
Permanent residency is issued only for foreigners living in Qatar (3) for at least 20 years, fluent in Arabic, and with a clear criminal record, to name a few of the requirements imposed. Plus, the authorities will ask for information about personal incomes to see if candidates can support their living, including family members.
Legal residents living in Qatar (4) for at least 25 years without interruptions of more than 2 consecutive months in one year can apply for Qatari citizenship. The process is quite complex for non-Qatari citizens, however, they can be good candidates for such a status.
