How To Get Physical Hayya Card (Qatar 2022™ Fan ID)

NOTE: This article is about the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ and has not been updated after December 2022.

All FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ attendees will be required to have a mandatory Fan ID called Hayya Card. In addition to facilitating entry into the country, the Hayya Card will enable local and international fans to attend matches.

A digital version of the Hayya Card can be accessed using the Hayya to Qatar 2022 mobile app. There is also an option to get a printed version, known as a physical Hayya Card. This article will explain how you can get a physical Hayya Card.

What is Physical Hayya Card?

A physical Hayya Card is a printed card format of the Hayya Card. The contents are similar to that of the digital version.

This personalised and secure identification document includes the cardholder’s name, photo, status, match tickets, Hayya Card number, passport number, QR Code, and other important information.

Do you need a physical Hayya Card during the World Cup?

A physical Hayya Card is not mandatory during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™. You only need a digital Hayya Card on your smartphone. Many fans prefer to get a physical Hayya Card to keep as memorabilia.

Latest Update

02 OCTOBER 2022 UPDATE: According to the Hayya support team, Qatar Post is not accepting requests for free delivery of physical Hayya Cards.

The last date to apply for free delivery of a physical Hayya Card was reportedly 30 September 2022. Earlier Qatar Post used to deliver the card free of cost to everyone, including international fans who requested the card.

However, you can still get a physical Hayya Card by visiting a Hayya Service Center with your digital card (mobile app).
