Everyday Costs in in Qatar

How much does it really cost to live, work, or travel in ? Here's what to expect for daily expenses and expat living.

Currency Guide: Qatar (QA)

For travelers planning a 1-week mid-range stay in Qatar, a reasonable budget would be around 4,500 Qatari riyals (QAR), which translates to approximately 1,230 USD. This budget should cover accommodation, meals, transportation, and some leisure activities. Here’s a breakdown of typical daily expenses in Qatar:

  • 🥘 Meal at a local restaurant: 40 QAR
  • ☕ Coffee: 10 QAR
  • 🚍 Public transport fare: 5 QAR
  • 📱 Prepaid SIM card: 100 QAR (for a month)
  • 🏨 Budget hotel or Airbnb: 300 QAR per night

Travelers will find that Qatar is on the higher side of the expense spectrum compared to other destinations. For context, the overall cost of visiting Qatar is somewhat more expensive than in the United States, especially for dining and accommodation, and also more costly than in the UK, where basic expenses tend to be lower overall.

Expat Living Costs in Qatar

For expats residing in Qatar, typical monthly living expenses can vary widely but generally fall between 10,000 QAR to 20,000 QAR (approximately 2,750 to 5,500 USD), depending on lifestyle choices. This estimate covers rent for a one-bedroom apartment, groceries, utilities, and leisure activities. When managing finances, it's advisable for expats to leverage local banking facilities, but using international policies can provide added flexibility. Most establishments accept credit and debit cards; however, be cautious about foreign transaction fees. As for money transfers, while exchanging cash prior to your trip might seem convenient, using online services like Wise or OFX typically offers better rates and lower fees for sending or receiving larger amounts. Overall, expats will find that maintaining a local bank account while utilizing online transfer services balances convenience with cost-effectiveness.
