Qatar Expat Community

Qatar Expat Community

The Expat Community Qatar welcomes you!

As-salām 'alaykum and a heart-felt welcome to the InterNations expat community in Qatar! Our international community caters to your specific needs and supports you in relocating to and putting down roots in Qatar. Living abroad in a foreign country is definitely a great intercultural experience, but typically brings up a lot of questions for the Qatar expat: ʺWhat is the best international school for my kids in Qatar?ʺ, ʺHow do I find a job for my spouse in Al-Khor?ʺ or ʺWhere in Doha can I meet fellow expats and compatriots from my home country?” Just to name a few examples…

InterNations aim is to help you, as an expat, in becoming part of the Qatar expat community and exploring the Qatari way of life in all its aspects: From enjoying the traditional harees to celebrating the Powerboat Race for sailing enthusiasts from all over the globe.

Next to Qatar we host several more communities in Middle East & Central Asia, e.g., our network of UAE expats. Or you might be interested in our expat Oman community which is also fairly active.

Enjoy the Expat Living in Qatar to the fullest

With attractions ranging from fruit-flavoured tobacco at countless sheesha cafés to Doha's Souq Waqif, the renovated Arabic market quarter, Qatar fascinates expatriates and globetrotters of many nationalities every year. The sizable expat community in Qatar is, however, mostly drawn to the country by the urban growth of Doha and its political as well as economic opportunities, e.g. in the petro sector. Whether you move to and live in Qatar for professional or private reasons, you’ll surely take with you lifelong memories of great international experiences and intercultural exchange.

In our private community, you can easily get to know fellow expatriates in Qatar in a casual way – within a safe, invitation-only environment where trustworthiness and respectful behavior are key. Ask our helpful and friendly expat members for advice from Qatar’s international community, e.g. with regard to getting a residence permit. Furthermore, you’ll meet with other expats at our high-class InterNations Events – mixing and mingling in hotspots like Al-Khor or Rayyan, for all internationals belonging to the expat community in Qatar.
