Qatar suspends visa-on-arrival facility for nationals of Lebanon

On 2 April 2026, Qatar suspended the visa-on-arrival (VoA) facility for nationals of Lebanon with immediate effect, following an official advisory issued by the embassy of Lebanon in Doha. Nationals of Lebanon traveling to Qatar are no longer eligible for VoA and must now secure an appropriate pre-approved visa prior to their departure for Qatar.
