Visitors must still apply for a Hayya Card, which is the permit to enter the country and access stadiums.

"Non-ticketed fans can apply for their Hayya Cards to enter the State of Qatar through the Hayya platform or Hayya to Qatar 2022 mobile app from today," said Colonel Dr. Jabr Hammoud Jabr Al Nuaimi, Official Spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior during a press conference to outline the latest operational aspects of the tournament.

The main topics discussed were the fan experience, transport, medical guidance and security protocols.

The World Cup will be held from November 20 to December 18 in eight stadiums.
