The video is captioned: “Right now I’m supposed to be in Qatar. But why am I not in Qatar? Because I didn’t get into the country.”
The TikTok user explained: “So right now I don’t think I have the required Hayya card that is needed to get into Qatar.
“Normally for Americans it is a visa-free entry to this country.

“However because of the World Cup going on, they introduced the Hayya Pass system.
“So in order to get a Hayya Pass you need to purchase a ticket for one of the matches.
“You can then bring up to three people on your Hayya Pass but they also need to pay $130.
“Well I went through this entire system, I got to the airport in Kuwait and I attempted to board my flight.

“I paid for everything to get to Qatar even my Hayya pass and they made it like impossible to actually get my card.
“So once again I’m wasting money to not go to Qatar.
“I did not have my Hayya Pass yet so I was denied boarding, didn’t get in, flew to Dubai instead which means I had to purchase a ticket on the spot.”
Chloe added that as soon as she arrived to Dubai, the Hayya Pass was sent to her email.
She said: “Once I landed in Dubai, guess what I received in my e-mail.
“My Hayya Pass just came in right now. “I literally got here 30 minutes ago.
“Thanks for nothing Qatar. Maybe I’ll never see you.
“This is just a PSA. Wait till the Hayya pass comes in, it’s not worth it.”
Her followers were quick to point out it was he fault she was left out of the country despite her explaining she sent her application a month in advance.
One said: “You didn’t follow the entry requirements.”
