Qatar launches Hayya Card and accommodation websites ahead of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™

Qatar has announced the Hayya Card programme and launched its accommodation booking website for fans attending this year’s FIFA World Cup™, which will take place from 21 November to 18 December.

After purchasing FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ tickets, fans should apply for a Hayya Card, which will be mandatory to attend matches. The Hayya Card will provide a number of benefits, including free public transport for ticket holders on match days. It will also act as an entry permit to Qatar for international visitors.

Match ticket holders are able to apply for a Hayya Card via Qatar2022.qa and the ‘Hayya to Qatar 2022’ mobile application (download links: iOS & Android).

Hayya Card as entry permit for international fans

International fans entering Qatar for the tournament will be receiving a separate entry permit along with their Hayya Card which will allow them to enter Qatar starting from 1 November 2022.

Those with approved International Hayya Cards will be receiving the entry permit to their registered email addresses. The entry permit will be a PDF document which will state the entry and exit dates, along with personal details.

The Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy has confirmed that the last date to enter Qatar with a Hayya entry permit will be 23 December 2022 and the last date to exit will be 23 January 2023.

The entry permit will be a requirement for international visitors regardless of purpose and will be the only means to enter from 1 November 2022 till 23 December 2022.

The regulation is also applicable to GCC nationals and GCC residents.

Fans can now book accommodation via the dedicated Host Country Accommodation Portal which will offer various options throughout the year such as apartments, villas and cruise ship cabins. Fans can also book accommodation through traditional means, such as hotel and holiday accommodation websites.

Qatar is preparing to host the most compact version of the FIFA World Cup™ in modern history. All the stadiums are within close proximity of central Doha – helping to cut travel costs for fans while significantly reducing the event’s carbon footprint.
