Driving Licence On Arrival Visa

By SAB22

Hi,

Does anyone have any information regarding driving priveleges for people in Doha through an on-arrival-visa? I have a licenece in my home country and have been driving for years.

I dont speak Arabic so the instructions of the people at the Traffic Department wasn't clear. I can't seem to find any advice on the official Qatari website. 

 

Any advice would be great.

Molten: As I have stated many, many, many times at QL, you are downright STUPID and by posting your STUPID comments which you must do as you get enjoyment in misguiding people and making false promises, you are simply putting others into trouble.

If one asks a stupid person to add 3 and 3, he will give the answer as 7. If you try to correct him , he will argue that you forgot to add the carry. One just cannot argue with a stupid person.

That is the case with you.

I post only when I realize that your STUPID comment would place a person seeking genuine information or advice into serious trouble. I don't post on many of your STUPID comments when they don't hurt or misguide somebody.

Accha, Do you mean having a license won't cause any accident.? You are WRONG. It is NOT the license, plastic card that prevents accidents my pal. All the accidents are caused by the people with Driving Licenses .... Hope you agree on it ..... Be fare my pal ......

No, you cannot drive in Qatar without a valid driving license issued by the Qatari government. I too have a driving license from my home country and also from another ME country but I don't drive here as I don't have a Qatari license.

Molten Metal: Why? Why? Why do you go about ALWAYS misguiding people? Do you get some form of enjoyment from doing so? You have been doing this for over six years now. The person could be in deep trouble if he met with an accident and did not have a valid Qatari driving license. Did you ever realize the consequences of your misguiding comments that you ALWAYS love to make?

You mus be very happy today as the entire QL page has your name appearing on all the posts with many of your silly comments.
