A visit visa is basically for those who are entering Qatar to visit a relative or a friend. In this type of visa, your family/friend will be sponsoring you. This visa is valid for 6 months.
Despite having the same purpose, Family Visa is different from Visit Visa. This visa does not have an expiration date. Even an expat working in Qatar can sponsor their family to live in Qatar.
