Helpful tips before walking the docks
Qatar tourist visa rules
Visit Qatar says citizens of over 102 countries can enter visa-free and others apply on the Hayya platform, at QAR 100 for a tourist visa. These are tourist rules and do not say what crew need to work. Check the rules for your passport.
Minakom
Minakom is the customs and passport portal on the Old Doha Port website. A logistics agent handles the entry formalities and the marina assigns a berth. The Terminal has passport and customs services around the clock.
