Hahaha I have a feeling Jason will freak out in here.

Jason, you might kill someone in here. Most people here are THE SLOWEST people on this planet. It's like they hand pick retards and bring them to breed with each others.

Good luck man,

Alcohol will surely help

besides, you sound really frustrated and anxious... are you sure, Qatar is for you? You will have a lot of patience here..

You better make sure Qatar is for you, then sell the car..

Wouldn't it be better to wait until you are sure you are not going home any time soon first?

Jason, it's not that we can't give an answer, it's that this is Doha, and there are sometimes NO set answers! Most things are decided on a case-by-case basis, laws are often not written and they are not always adhered to. The answer is usually - it depends! If you know a member of the royal family you can probably do it!

Among other reasons, it's possible that the cars imported from UK may not meet the stringent quality checks and specifications of Qatar's licensing authorities..

I don't think I have ever seen right hand drives in here.

Can anyone confirm?

I would say it is not allowed because this might not pass the mechanical inspection before you get your Qatar plate

All I know that cars should be less than 4 years old. (better to check the validity of this because I shipped my car about 2 years ago and things might have changed)

If the right hand drive is not an issue, go ahead and get it and avoid the greedy dealers of Doha.
