@QDCLover Naah.. It's Netherlands mate who more sort of appreciate cycling than cars..

I thought Belgians only rode bicycles?

I have gone thru the sam eprocedure...good luck and thanks for Wee professional explainations.....

As Belgian licence is a EU licence, you should be able to get Qatar licence with only an eye test and payment of licence fee. If you have your residency permit, then you can get a permanent licence (QR250) otherwise you will have to get a temporary licence, valid for 3 months (QR 150). Simply go along to Traffic Department at Madinat Khalifa, with your forms and photos, do the eye test, and assuming you pass go across to the other office and obtain your licence. Normally your company will prepare the paperwork as think sponsor will need to approve.

That's the easy bit...the hard bit starts when you take to the local roads for the first time!!!
