By definition, a computer card in Qatar is a document that attests who the authority is in your company by way of signature. This document is mandatory for foreign company owners to issue residence permits in order to hire employees. As Qatar economic policy dictates that you need one or more Qatar nationals to be a company partner, it will be their name that the computer card will be initially registered under. However, you may also add your name afterwards.

In order to apply for your computer card in Qatar, ensure that you have an officially registered company seal. The following documents are mandatory in order to file an application for a computer card:

  • An official company seal
  • A copy of your commercial residence certificate
  • A copy of your trade license
  • Identity card copy of partner who is to be registered on the computer card
  • Identity card/passport copies of shareholders
  • Proof of payment of QR 200 as the application fee

Once you have submitted the application, it may take up to a day to be issued. Once it is issued, you may hire employees by issuing them residence permits and you may also issue said employees exit permits to leave the country.

If you have any questions regarding this procedure, feel free to contact one of our friendly customer service agents. We are happy to say that all advice is free! If you would like to view an in depth guide on the company registration process in Qatar, click here.

Do note that the application fee will be returned if you are not issued your computer card, as it is only obligatory for successfully issued computer cards.
