Qatar Financial Center The Qatar Financial centre (QFC) is a leading business and financial hub in Doha, established by Law No.7 of 2005. With its own legal, regulatory, and tax framework the QFC provides an ideal environment for companies to set up or expand their business in Qatar. It allows up to 100% foreign ownership, ensures 100% repatriation of profits, and charges a competitive 10% corporate tax rate on locally-sourced profits. The QFC integrates businesses into Qatar’s rapid growth as a major trade and investment center, contributing to the country’s economic development goals outlined in Qatar National Vision 2030.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI) oversees commercial and industrial activities in Qatar, aligning them with national development goals. When setting up a company with the MCI, a local Qatari sponsor holding 51% ownership is required, along with mandatory office space that includes a flexi-desk as a minimum. The MCI focuses on supporting trading activities, providing office space across Qatar, facilitating external approvals for specific business activities (e.g., taxi services), and fostering collaboration with the banking and government sectors.
Qatar Free Zone focuses on four key sectors: emerging technologies, logistics, industry, and maritime. It is conveniently located 30 minutes from Downtown Doha, adjacent to award-winning transport hubs - Hamad Airport and Hamad Seaport, providing global connectivity. QFZ offers attractive incentives such as 20-year corporate tax holidays, zero individual income taxes, and exemption from import custom duties. Investors enjoy 100% foreign ownership rights and full capital repatriation. QFZ encompasses two main areas: the airport and seaport free zones.
