Are you an International traveller who submitted the Hayya card application, but are facing the Hayya Card Pending Accommodation notification? Their Hayya Card application won’t be fully accepted until all the information about their accommodation is submitted and authenticated.

Here I will discuss the various alternatives for tourists to confirm their Hayya Card Pending accommodation, according to the kind of accommodation. So, let’s begin:

For those unfamiliar with the Hayya Card, it is a customized and secure identity card provided by the State of Qatar to tourists who request for entry permission via the Hayya portal.

Individuals applying for visas using the Hayya portal must have an authorized Hayya Card and a Hayya Entry Permit. Visitors must organize their own accommodation in order to gain final permission on their Hayya Cards.

Discover Qatar is Qatar Airways’ destination management organization and a partner of Qatar Tourism. The Discover Qatar website lists hundreds of hotels and lodging alternatives.

It should be noted that in some situations, booking your hotel through Discover Qatar is mandatory. This will be determined by aspects such as your visa type, nationality, and so on.
