Qatar Visa Status Check by Passport Number 2026 (MOI Portal Guide)
Two fields, no account, live from the MOI database. And a clear rule for when a stuck status means you should escalate.
Updated August 18, 2026
Checking a Qatar visa is genuinely simple, which is why the volume of unofficial lookalike sites around it is so high. Use the official portal, and be aware that only one domain is authorised for these checks.
What you need
- Your valid passport number
- Your correct nationality
That is all. No registration or login credentials are required for a basic visa or Qatar ID status lookup, and the results are retrieved live from the MOI database.
Step by step
- Go to portal.moi.gov.qa.
- Open the Inquiries section.
- Choose the visa or residency inquiry that matches what you are checking.
- Enter your passport number and select your nationality.
- Complete the captcha and submit.
If the status does not change
A status that sits still is not automatically a problem, but there is a sensible threshold. If your visa status remains unchanged for more than 10 working days, contact your sponsor or visit the nearest Qatar Visa Centre rather than continuing to refresh the page.
