Qatar continues its efforts to streamline digital processes as the Ministry of Transport (MoT) shifts 14 maritime transport services online. This effectively encompasses both large-vessel transactions as well as various affairs for seafarers, which interested parties can access from the official website.
This includes ship sanitation for big vessels, along with registration for renewals and extension certificates. Annual fees can also be processed accordingly, as well as the issuance of an NOL that announces a navigational warning. Additionally, e-services encompass exemption certificates and penalties as well.
As for the aforementioned affairs for seafarers, these involve the endorsement recognising a GMDSS operator certificate, whether it’s for the issuance, replacement, renewal, or amendment.
All these are in line with the digital transformation of the ministry’s services, which include enhancing the overall user experience for everyone involved. This should also assist in modernising the transport industry towards integrated government services that are available online at any time and from any place.
In other news, the Ministry of Interior has effectively terminated the temporary extension decision that pertains to all types of expired entry visas. This will take effect on June 7th, which means that from that date onwards, each visa category will continue under approved validity periods. Everyone is advised to adhere to the proper timelines and settle the necessary fees to verify their legal status.
