Hi,

moving to Qatar and would like to finalise the car options. i currently have a car in the UAE with 18months finance remaining and after looking at the rental options thing that it might be a good idea to move this car to Qatar. My question is firsty, is this possible with finance outstanding in the UAE, if not how long could i drive my car as a visitor to Qatar, if i were to drive there?

I don't think you can get export papers while there is an outstanding loan on the car. So proper export and import is probably not feasible.

Sorry can't help on the possibilities of just driving up here as a visitor without changing the plates. But I bet there's a catch somewhere...

It is probably worth clearing the loan and doing a proper import (after you have Qatar residence). In general cars are more expensive here than in UAE.

will your Banker allow you to take your car out of country with out settling the Loan, first settle that there, then you can think of driving it here.All the Best
