Qatar’s Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy had launched the “Hayya With Me” (1+3) feature in 2022, allowing international fans with match tickets and approved Hayya Cards to bring up to three non-ticket holders.
This article will explain how Hayya Card holders can bring guests (friends and family members) using the “Hayya With Me (1+3)” by sending them Hayya With Me voucher code.
NOTE: The below article has been updated with new requirements for 2024.
10 FEBRUARY 2024 Update: The deadline for entry under the Hayya With Me (C) scheme came to a close on February 10, 2024. The last date of stay in Qatar will be February 24, 2024.
What is ‘Hayya With Me’
Hayya With Me is a feature that allowed a match ticket holder to invite up to 3 non-ticketed guests to enter Qatar during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™. Hayya With Me allowed non-ticketed guests, such as relatives or friends, to enter Qatar and enjoy the festivities, including fan zones, concerts etc. However, they cannot attend any matches without a match ticket.
The Hayya With Me feature is back in 2023, and allows international fans to bring up to 3 friends and family members (who do not have Hayya Card).
If you are a Hayya card holder looking to visit Qatar, please check our guide on how to visit Qatar using Hayya Card in 2024.
Can all Hayya Card holders bring non-ticket fans?
This feature is only available to international fans aged 18 or above who applied using a match ticket number. They should also have confirmed accommodation and approved Hayya Card. Qatar residents are not eligible for this feature.
Is this feature free for international fans?
In 2022, there was a fee of QR 500 per non-ticketed fan above 12 years. Children below 12 years could be added free of cost. The good news is that currently, there is no fee for Hayya With Me. It is issued completely free of cost.

How Hayya Card Holders Can Bring Non-Ticket Holders
The process to invite non-ticket holders will be a two-stage process.
Stage 1: To be done by the Hayya Card holder
The first stage should be done by the Hayya card holder as follows:
Step 1: Log in to your Hayya account
You should use the same email and password that you used for creating the account in 2022.
Step 2: Select ‘My Hayya’ and click ‘Action’
Step 3: Select ‘Hayya with Me’
Hayya With Me option will be shown as a drop-down menu. The Hayya Card application should already be approved for this feature.
Step 4: You can see three voucher codes
These are your “Hayya With Me Voucher Codes”.
Step 5: These voucher codes should be given to non-ticketed guests
Please note that each guest needs a different “Hayya With Me Voucher Code”. Multiple guests cannot use the same code.
Stage 2: To be done by the guest
The second stage should be done by the guest (friend or family member) as follows:
Step 1: Create a Hayya Account and Login
- Go to the Hayya Portal.
- Click “Apply For Hayya”.
- If you don’t have an account, sign up here using your email ID.
- Once your email ID is confirmed, log in using the same email ID and password.
Step 2: Click on “Apply for Hayya”
This option is available on the top menu.
Step 3: From ‘Applicant Category’, select ‘Hayya with Me (C)’
Step 4: Enter the voucher code received from the Hayya Card holder
This should be the “Hayya With Me Voucher Code” received during the first stage explained earlier.
Step 5: Click on ‘Validate my Voucher’
The system will validate the voucher. Once validated, you can proceed with the application.
Step 6: Review and accept the terms
This will be active only if your voucher details are validated.
Step 7: Upload photo and passport details
For more details on photo and passport files, please see this article on how to apply for a Hayya Card.
Step 8: Enter your personal details and contact information
Step 9: Click on the “Review & Submit” button
You will receive the updates in your email. Once your application is approved, you will receive an entry permit to the State of Qatar via email.
Stage 3: Accommodation
The guest should have confirmed accommodation before travelling. If the guest is using a hotel accommodation, he only needs a hotel booking. The details of hotel booking should be uploaded to “Upload Other Platforms Booking” on the Hayya portal.
If the guest is staying with a Qatar resident, the resident should register his property on Hayya portal and add the guest to it. Here is our guide on how to register on Hayya portal to host family and friends. As per the new update in April, the host should invite the guest before the guest can apply for Hayya.
Note: Nowadays National Address Certificate is also accepted instead of Tenancy Contract.
