Ali, no, you won’t qualify for the 72 hour free transit facility because of your nationality, but you can use the 24 hour direct transit. No need to apply for a visa then.

Thanks Allis.

But 24 direct transit would mean that I would have to stay at the airport right? Remember my plan was to overnight at the hotel. In that case I would I need a visa

You may be required to apply for a free temporary stay permit at the immigration office when you arrive at the airport. Afterwards, you can leave the airport. No need to worry!

Usually, it's easy to get the temporary stay permit, and you can get the result within ten minutes if only few people are waiting there.
