Hello,

I am moving to Qatar in the near future and am packing my books. Are there any types of books that will not be allowed into the country? I have books on history and politics and many other subjects and want to make sure that I don't pack something that is not allowed.

Thank you for your help!

Any photos or drawings of people naked (or in Lingerie/Bikinis) could be confiscated.

Make sure you don't have any books showing people with less or no clothes , even ART Books would be a problem. I know people that have to go to court over ART books, and it is not a pleasant experience.

Pornography is more of an issue than politics.

It is doubtful if they'll even look at the books unless they are notoriously anti Islamic or anti the Royal family here.
