You live in Niger on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Niger but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
Common mistakes
Intermediary websites that copy the look of the official portal and charge high service fees are a frequent trap: pay only on the Qatari government portal. Also avoid blurred documents, details that differ from your passport and applications filed at the last minute, a few days before the flight.
