Hamad Port takes RoRo and container services with regular calls from China, and onward movement is quick given the country’s size.

Qatar import questions

What is the vehicle age limit for importing a car into Qatar?
About 5 years for used vehicles.
Do Chinese left-hand-drive cars work in Qatar?
Qatar drives on the right, so a left-hand-drive car is the correct vehicle type: the steering wheel is on the side the road requires. Every car we ship is left-hand drive. Used vehicles generally need to be within about five years old, and conformity certification is required. Qatar has not introduced VAT, so the 5% GCC duty is the whole customs bill.
Which port does a car from China clear at for Qatar?
Hamad Port. Hamad Port takes RoRo and container services with regular calls from China, and onward movement is quick given the country’s size.
How much does it cost to import a car from China to Qatar?
Customs charges on CIF — the vehicle price plus freight and insurance — and never on the invoice alone. Base duty is 5% of CIF. No further levies apply — duty is the whole customs bill in this market. Run the numbers through the landed-cost calculator and treat the result as a planning figure: the final figure exists only once customs assesses the specific vehicle.
How do I know the car is as described before it ships?
Every unit is photographed and videoed at the yard, and the walkaround goes to you before the balance is due. Loading is supervised, and a unit that fails the agreed specification at that point is stopped rather than shipped.
Is it cheaper to ship one car or several to Qatar?
RoRo is the simplest option for a single unit. A 40ft container normally carries two to four cars, so once you have enough volume to fill one, the cost per car drops noticeably — and the vehicles are not exposed on deck. Both are quoted on request for this lane.
