Qatar to implement ID cards for all its resid
Doha: Qatar plans to introduce Identity Cards for all its residents in a year’s time, a report published in the local Arabic daily Al Raya revealed.
The report said that the Qatari Ministry of Interior has signed a contract with a private company to launch the ID card project as well as introducing iris scan at entry points.
The implementation of the ID card project will cost a total of 31 million Qatari Riyals and is expected to be completed in a year.
The objective is to have a single data bank that will ensure smooth transactions between various public departments in the country.

I saw the new ID of my Qatari sponsor. It has chip in it.
That should be implemented long time ago. Now I do hope they have birth and marriages certificates as well.
I think maybe these are the smart cards with the chip on them. Expats just have cards with barcodes.
You can't teach experience...
