International visitors who applied for Hayya Card but haven’t confirmed their accommodation details will see their status as “Pending (Accommodation Confirmation)”. Their Hayya Card application will not be fully approved until the accommodation details are entered and validated.
This article will explain the different options for visitors to validate their Hayya Card Pending Accommodation, depending upon their type of accommodation.
For those who are not sure what a Hayya Card is, it s a personalized and secure identification document issued by the State of Qatar to visitors who apply for an entry permit through the Hayya portal.
An approved Hayya Card and Hayya Entry Permit is required for visitors who are applying for visa through the Hayya portal. Visitors will need to arrange their accommodation plans to receive final approval on their Hayya Cards.

If you have applied for a visa through Hayya portal and your application status is pending accommodation confirmation, these are the available options
Option 1: Book Your Accommodation Via Discover Qatar

Hello,
I have hayya entry permit for my brother. To host him I have added my accommodation details and filled in his details as well. The invitation email has been sent to him. Where can I see that the accommodation has been approved for him? Do either of us need to do anything at this stage?
Many thanks
Hi, If your brother has received invitation email and entry permit, that is enough.
Hi, can I use national address certificate for host family? If what name should I give it to property details
Hi Rifad, You can give any name to the property. This is only for your identification if you have multiple properties.
@myhayyaqatar-While filling out the guest details I made a mistake, I put the wrong email address due to this she did not receive email confirmation for accommodation. I called the Hayyateam several times for support, and I raised tickets as well. (Ticket SD26741360) but until now no response. I have already booked a ticket for my family for 08/06/2023.

Hi. I have applied for my hayya card with one dependent and have selected family as my accommodation. Can I enter my husband’s accommodation details from my account? Or he has to make one for himself and do it. And also, does my husband needs to wait for my rejection to apply by himself or he can apply already whilst my application status shows in process?
Hi Maimuna, We assume your husband is the QID holder. Please make a new account for husband (you only need a different email id) and add his accommodation details. Then add yourself and your child as guests. You will receive an invitation email. You don’t have to wait for rejection.
And after the invitation email what is the next step? I received it already. But i had applied for hayya before him. What to do next? Please reply
