Hi,

I have come Qatar (Doha) on a work visa a week ago and have valid Oman Driving License. Please let me know the process of getting it converted in to Qatar License. Do I need to appear for any test?. My Qatar ID is yet to be prepared.

Please suggest.

Thank you all for your valuable advise. Can anyone suggest which driving school to contact for giving direct test?

Dear Sir,

Report has been released by The Traffic Department saying that the driving licenses of expats from the GCC countries cannot be converted into Qatari Driving licenses.

One needs to be a GCC Citizen in order to be eligible for this license conversion.

Qatar residents permit holders who hold valid GCC driving licence can still take the direct test, failure to pass this test means they have to take the full course.

For GCC license holders , you can now take a direct test - without having to take any lessons..

Check with any driving school

You can no longer convert any GCC driving license to a Qatar driving license. Suggest you contact any driving school for further information on how to get a driving license here.
