I followed an arab man (he was wearing a dish dash),who had got on the plane in Bahrain,carrying a large bottle of Famous Grouse whiskey in a carrier bag.It was plain to see what it was....he walked straight through the arrivals at Doha,not a word was said to him. One rule for them and another for us!

No alcohol! No Pork! But you can bring pork without tag that it is a pork. Pork with bones? My friend brought pork with bones several times but was cooked. Just bring in a small quantity to be safe. You can have them checked-in or hand carried. If caught, they will just take it from you and you can enter to Qatar still.

Don't ever try to bring alcohol!
