hi guys!

i am kinda new here in Qatar working for a multi national petroleum company and i find my job really interesting as well as challenging. on a day-to-day basis, i am driving between Doha and our plant site using my newly purchased car. not to mention the occassional trips to shopping malls and souqs. but i find it really inconvenient to drive around on my car without window tints; and i noticed that almost all cars here have no tints on them! i am considering installing one on my car but i just like to be informed first (please someone help) whether or not car window tint is prohibited here in Qatar? it's very hot and humid outside and i know tints can help my A/C run more effectively.

thanks in advance guys!

You can tint your rear windows by 30%. You will need to go to Madinat Khalifa Police station and request them, they will add it to your vehicle permit after they check your car. They have no problem if you are a family man (hint - have a child safety seat installed at the back).

Then you can go to C ring road near oasis vehicles (something) and they can help you out with the tint.

All the best.

Yes it is prohibited by law unless you can provide medical proof from HMC.
