Qatar Travel and Return Policy -update - only 11 green list countries

 There  are only 11 green list countries  = arriving  from there - you need no  hotel  quarantine .

 They  are : 1 Australia  2 Canada 3 Croatia 4 Czechia 5 Germany  6 Hungary  7 Latvia  8 New Zealand  9 Poland  10 Romania 11 Slovakia

As of 23 August 2021

________________

Arriving  from the rest of the  world  you might need  hotel  quarantine for different periods of time .

Travelling  home from Qatar and  returning is still  very risky  financial  step . Your country  might be on the green list  when  you leave  and it can turn into yellow  or red  when you  wish to return .  Then  you need to go to the hotel quarantine  which is not  cheap at all .   Also you have to pay for the PCR tests  .  In case travelling  with  your  family  you might pay  more  for these  Covid19extra  costs   than for all your vacation  .

That  is really  frustrating .

 Before  deciding about  your  travel  from Qatar or to Qatar - please  study well  the conditions .

 There different  rules for residents /citizens /GCC residents /tourists - vaccinated -non vaccinated -green list -yellow -red list countries .

 And  the rules are changing every two weeks .
