thank you guys for the answers,

but i heard some stories that if you are two in one car especially at night and if its clear that you are from different nationalities then they will ask for Ids and and you could be departed from the country even if you just driving without showing any public display of affection.

I agree. I have not heard of any restrictions for night and day driving. We are not in Afghanistan. Qatar is far more advanced than some of the other Islamic nations. Enjoy your life. If you are lucky enough to find a Girlfriend in Qatar then BRAVO! The men to Women ratio here is rediculous. Be respectful to the locals. Dont show public affection. Holding hands and close quarters conversation is fine. Dont go licking her face and grabbing her but in public and you should be fine. Have fun brotha!

What on Earth, there are no day time night time rules. Just get on with your life with whoever you want no one will stop you or question you unless you do something to offend the culture here. It's important to bear in mind that you re a guest in Qatar so the least you can do is respect their culture even if it may seem 'strict' to you. I think if you show no public display of affection and you'll be okay.

Hope that helped!

In no way it is illegal........ but not authorised too.....

Both must carry their ID cards

Day time driving - LET HER SIT FRONT SEAT

Night time driving - LET HER SIT BACK SEAT

Sitting inside the car in a secluded dark area in a compromising position triggers suspicion, then you both are in trouble............. not much to panic you......
