Purchased expensive ticket through Qatar Airways just because of this 96 hour transit visa.

However, after reading few comments of VISA rejection by Qatar immigration authorities, I am stuck now.

Submitted documents on 28 Jul 2017. Flying to Baku on 10 Aug 2017.

However, as on 3 Aug 2017, My application status is still "submitted".

It would be very difficult for me to change the ticket once journey has started.

Lets see.
Flew TXL-DOH-HKT on 31 jul, applied 21 jul for visa, got the visa in my email the morning of the day of departure. It will come, if it is not there 1-2 days before the day you will need it (not neccessary the day of departure!) give QR a call.
