If arriving in Qatar on a visitor’s visa it is possible to use a national licence from any country to drive a car for seven days, provided it is a rental vehicle. A driver who holds an International Driving Permit (IDP) may drive a rental vehicle for up to six months – or until the visa status changes from visitor to resident. The licence from the home country must be available for inspection as well as the IDP.Short-term visitors and business travellers also have the option to obtain Temporary Qatari Driving License, on presenting their home country license at any Qatar Traffic Police branch.
