A Hayya Card is a mandatory fan ID introduced during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™. All local and international fans, including children, had to apply for a digital Hayya Card. As children cannot apply by themselves, adults are allowed to add them as dependents under the adult’s Hayya application.
This article will explain the conditions and the step-by-step process of how you can apply Hayya Card for dependents using Hayya With Me 2023 feature.
What is Hayya With Me
Hayya With Me (1+3) is a feature using which an international fan who purchased FIFA World Cup match tickets in 2022 can invite up to three family members or friends to visit Qatar.
In January 2023, Qatar’s Ministry of Interior announced that the validity of Hayya Cards will be extended until January 2024. The Hayya With Me feature is also back, which means international fans who bought match tickets in 2022, can still invite up to three guests using their voucher codes.
This is a great opportunity for those who want to visit Qatar, as this is issued free of charge and allows multiple entries up to January 2024.
Condition To Apply Hayya Card For Dependents
You can apply digital Hayya Cards for up to 10 dependents as long as they are under the age of 18.
Before you begin with the application of a dependent, you should complete your application first. You can only apply for dependents after your application is completed.
If you haven’t applied for your Hayya Card, please see the detailed guide on the requirements and how to apply for Hayya Card using Hayya With Me.
How To Apply Hayya Card For Children
If you are creating a new Hayya account for the child, the steps are same as applying for an adult’s Hayya card.
Or else, if you are adding the child as a dependent under an adult, you need to follow the below steps. These steps should be done after you have completed the adult’s Hayya Card application.
Step 1: Log in to your Hayya account
You can sign in on the website: www.hayya.qatar2022.qa
Step 2: Click on “My Hayya”
This will be available on the top right of the page (near your name).
Step 3: Click on “Add Dependents”
This option will be below the Hayya details of the primary applicant.
Step 4: Complete the application form
You need to fill up the form and upload the dependent’s photo.
Step 5: Upload passport and complete details
You need to fill up the details and upload the passport as you did for your application.
Step 6: Click on “Review & Submit”
After completing the details and uploading the passport, click the “Review & Submit” button.
Once the application is submitted, it will be reviewed by the Hayya Team, and you will receive updates by email.

Note that International fans must also confirm their accommodation plans (for children also) before travelling.
Delay In Hayya Approval For Family
Even if you apply together for an adult and a child, sometimes one of them may take longer than the other. You don’t have to worry if you face delays in approval, as this normal nowadays.
For any questions about Hayya Card, please contact [email protected] or call 800.2022 (Qatar) or (+974) 4441.2022 (International).

Hi John, If the dependent’s visa is approved she can travel with anyone. The entry permit will not have the primary applicant’s name. So you don’t have to change it to be under her mother. If you want to make sure you can call Hayya helpline (800 2022).

Hi . I have applied to add my twin daughters as dependants in My Hayya. One of them was approved and the other was rejected . It is mentioned that the reason of rejection is that her residancy permit in Saudi Arabia is valid for less than 3 months. This is correct but I did not apply for their vias based on their Saudi residancy permit. I have applied for both of them based on their UK visa. I could not submit another application and I tried to correct the current one but there is no update and not action is under process. What should I do??
Hi Marwa, Please contact Hayya Support at [email protected] or (+974) 4441 2022. They have to remove the old application before you can apply again. If you are applying based on UK visa, please upload UK visa and passport only (don’t upload Saudi RP).
Hi Saima, Kids can travel if their visa is approved. Adults will take time because they need security clearance. Some nationalities are exempted from A1 visa fee.

how can i add the baby born inside qatar the mother holding hayya visa
Hi Abc, You need to get baby’s birth certificate, passport and visit MOI Service Center with all documents of the baby and parents. The baby will get a visitor visa for QR 800.
If mother is under family visit visa you can apply this on Metrash ( https://www.dohaguides.com/qatar-id-for-a-baby-born-in-qatar/ ). In your case Metrash will not have the option because mother is on Hayya.

Hi Mohammed Bava, Yes, you can apply A1 visa for child. (During travel the airline may require permission from parents.)
