Essential Travel Info & Visa Requirements

Getting to Qatar from India is both easy and economical. Direct or connecting flights to Doha start at around ₹17,000 INR. The currency exchange rate is approximately 24 INR for 1 Qatari Riyal (QAR).

Free Visa on Arrival: Indians are eligible for a free Visa on Arrival. However, there is a strict condition—you MUST book your hotel through the 'Discover Qatar' website for a minimum of two days. Other booking platforms may result in your visa being rejected at immigration.
Getting Around: Forget expensive cabs! Buy a standard Metro Day Pass for just 6 QAR, which gives you unlimited rides across Doha's highly efficient metro network.
Sim Cards: Do NOT buy your SIM card at the airport (it can cost around 65 QAR). Instead, head to a local supermarket in the city where you can get a Vodafone SIM with 12GB of data for 3 days for just 25 QAR.
