Best time to go to Qatar

You probably won’t be surprised to hear that Qatar’s hot and sunny all year round. Summer temperatures often climb up to the late thirties. And even in the cooler months of October through to April, you can expect the mercury to stay well above 20 degrees, which means the country’s a nice escape from the cold Irish winter.

Passports & Visas

As an Irish citizen, to enter Qatar, your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date. You can obtain a free 30-day visa waiver upon arrival in Qatar. For the most up-to-date passport and visa information, visit www.ireland.ie/en/dfa/overseas-travel/advice/qatar/.
