The visa for Hayya Card holders is free but mandatory medical insurance must be obtained from the "visa" platform.

He also noted that the visa is valid for multiple trips and the holder can enter and exit the Kingdom at any time during its validity period. It is not required that the holder should have entered Qatar before that. He also indicated that the period of stay for the visa holder is two months, ending on 11 January 2023.
