Doing business in Qatar

Julien

Hi,

are foreign investors welcome in Qatar?

Is it complicated to register a company in Qatar? What is the procedure?

What is the corporate tax rate in Qatar?

Is it easy to recruit?

Any advice you would share with us?

Thank you very much for your participation,

Julien

Hey Julien,

You only can do business with a Qatari person, the law states that a qatari should have atleast 50% share with your business. But it can be worked around when you find a qatari investor.
