Is it possible to obtain a Qatar Driving License without going to driving schools and having a test?

Heard that others got their license without going through the normal process. They just paid an amount then they get their license.

Any information regarding this?

Hi,

Yes it is possible to get a Qatar Driving licence purely by filling out a form and paying a fee, but it is dependant upon holding a full driving licence issued by an acceptable country.

I'm not sure which countries are classed as acceptable, but from my own experience I know they accept UK licences.

Hope that helps you a little?
