 Hi guys, welcome back, it's Yannick Smiths from the next question. I just got a question, actually I got a lot of questions asking about passport requirements in the DCC. Remember when we are talking about the travel, when we are talking about the travel in the DCC or any country in the world. Remember you need to have what you call a passport. We need to have a passport. A passport is a document that is maybe issued by the government of your country. It is a document that would specify or would just, the document that would describe the person that is the citizen of this country. And that is the document that will require you to travel from one country to another because it will contain all what you call all your bio data at that case. And that is what you call a passport. So for you to travel or for you to who is planning to travel to any country. It may be for God country, it may be for Europe, it may be wherever you are to go and you are looking for job. You must have what you call a passport. Unless to some extent if your country has a waiver, a waiver with another country that you don't need a passport in that you can use what you call your ID. Like for example, when we have, we look at the countries where they don't need a passport, they need to use their ID to travel. But however, something that you still need to know are the passports also have their regulations. There passports should, one of the regulations of the passport if you are going to travel, if you are going to work in this Gulf countries, if you are going to work in Qatar, if you are going to work in Bahrain, if you are going to work in Saudi Arabia. One of the regulations, that passport should be issued by your government. That is, it should be issued genuinely by your government. That's one of the regulations. Then something that you need to know, that passport should have a validity and this is why the main concern comes in for people who have been asking the question. To some countries, if you are traveling to some countries, they may say, if you are coming to this country or if you are crossing to this country or another country, the validity of your passport should be 3 months. It's validity or it's expiry date should be more than 3 months. That is what to some countries say. To some countries may specify and say the validity of that passport should be more than 1 year. That is a requirement of that country you are planning to go to. That is part of the requirement. Then to some countries they say the validity of that passport should be 6 months. That is the requirement for that country if you want to go in that country or if you want to get a visa in that country. So when we are looking at GCC, we are looking at GCC or we are looking at the Middle East or we are looking at coming to Qatar or coming to Saudi Arabia. Most of the passport requirements in these Gulf countries are the validity should be 6 months. So make sure as you are planning to travel to these Gulf countries, the validity of your passport should have 6 months before it expires. Why are we saying like this or why do we have to say like this? Because for example look at for people who come in these Gulf countries. You always have what you call a probation of 6 months. And under that probation you will go for what you call medicals. What you call maybe the medical fitness test. And remember within that time you will not yet get what you call your ID until you pass what you call the medical. And normally it will take a range between 1 to 6 months until you get your ID. If it is fast enough depending on what the system requires you may get it a little bit less than that. So meaning that your passport should have a validity of 6 months before it expires. That is the rule. So for people who are planning to travel to the GCC or you are planning to travel to Qatar or you are planning to travel to Saudi Arabia. Make sure that no passport has a validity of 6 months before it expires. Because remember most of the probation periods in some of these Gulf countries is 6 months. So meaning that wherever will be done the medicals and the race will be done for you to get the ID. Your passport will still be accepted as the authorities need it to be. As part of the requirement. Thank you so much for coming back to this channel. This makes for my next creation. See you again in the next video.
