  • Regional conflict since early 2026: the UK FCDO warns of a high risk of sudden escalation, airspace closures and flight cancellations in the Gulf. Check advisories and your airline before travel.
  • Do not bring alcohol (even duty-free), pork or e-cigarettes into Qatar; they are confiscated and vapes are banned.
  • Indian and Ukrainian visitors need a prepaid hotel booking via Discover Qatar to get a visa on arrival (or apply in advance on Hayya).
  • Cover shoulders and knees in public places such as malls, souqs and government buildings.
  • Passport must be valid for at least 6 months; carry a return ticket and accommodation details.

입국과 비자

Over 90 nationalities get free visa-free entry on arrival, in one of two tiers: 30 days (extendable once by 30) or 90 days within 180. Nationalities not on the list apply online via Hayya or, for some (e.g. India, Ukraine), get a visa on arrival with a Discover Qatar hotel booking. A joint Qatar-Oman tourist visa is available for eligible nationals. Confirm your tier on the Visit Qatar visa checker.
