Start a Business at Your Home in Qatar

The home business activity in Qatar has recently exploded in popularity due to the entrepreneurial environment and the government support for small businesses. With the advancement in technology and relatively fewer legal requirements, starting a home-based business in Qatar has become popular recently. As Qatar encourages starting home-based businesses, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI) has reduced the fee for obtaining a license from QR 1,500 to QR 300 and simplified the requirements for a license where the QID address of the houseowner, QID of the applicant, and Onwani have to be submitted before the MOCI.

There are several activities to get started with your own home business that include:

Thus, with the growth of the country and the support given to small and medium enterprises, the future of home business in Qatar looks really bright.
