How to Change Name, Nationality or Occupation on a Qatar Residence Permit
Qatar’s Ministry of Interior lists a single form for changing the personal details on a residence record: the Resident Data Modification Form. This guide states only what the official Forms Index confirms about that form. The form file itself was not opened, so no steps, fields, or fees from inside it are stated here.
What the form covers
The MOI Department Forms Index, in the General Directorate of Passports list, gives the form’s scope exactly as: “Resident Data Modification Form (Change of Passports Details, Changing Name, Changing Nationality, Changing Occupation, Change of Employee’s Name, Loss of Passport or ID Card)”.
That scope covers: passport details changes, name changes, nationality changes, occupation changes, an employee’s name change, and loss of a passport or ID card. A photograph change is not in the listed scope, so no photo-change procedure is stated in this guide.
What is not stated
No application steps, no fee, no document list, no online route, and no processing time for this form are stated on the pages checked. The same Forms Index list includes a “Family Visa Application Form” and a “Visa Entry / Extension Application Form” by title only; neither was opened, and nothing from them is stated here.
Contacts
The MOI call centre number stated on official pages checked is 2367111. The General Directorate of Passports page lists 44890212, 44883777, and bpea@moi.gov.qa.
