Anybody has road map or important turning points from Sila to Qatar? Abu Dhabi to Qatar is almost a perfectly straight road the only turn to be made will be in Saudi Arabia (almost after 1 hour driving after entering Saudi Border) as the road will come to a big round-about where you will then take a right turn to Doha/Qatar (Salwa Border)
Is there any duty on household items? Not sure, but I shop at Ikea and bring things back all the time and normaly no hasle.
How long it takes from Abu Dhabi? I would say around 5 to 6 hours depending on the border how busy it is and how fast you drive.
Saudi transit validity and can I get it from Abu Dhabi?
What are the paper works, customs etc? you need to get a transit visa from saudi embassy in abu dhabi.
Once reached Qatar, how long it takes to register the vehicle, insurance etc? well I am not really sure about this but I believe you will need to get transit plates (Export)if your car is reg. in Abu Dhabi.
Do I need insurance while travelling? Yes, after passing the all the Saudi inspections the last booth you will need to get car insurance which will be 70 Dhs as they charge for a 7 day period. and the same will go for Qatar but as I live here I am not sure about the payment on the insurance here before entering.
