For people employed in Qatar and wanting to bring their family to join them, the government of Qatar has listed out criteria that they should meet. Before one goes about applying for a visa, the person needs to be drawing salary above certain limit and must have a proper accommodation, where he can house them conveniently. The Qatar Ministry of Interior (MOI) published a brief set of requirements that people applying for family residency need to be having.
