Qatar

Conflict in the Middle East and Gulf region could affect Qatar. Avoid protests and large public gatherings. Monitor local and international media for updates. If there's a security incident, follow the advice of local authorities (see 'Safety'). If you're visiting Qatar for major events, such as the Asian Football Cup, be aware that local laws and customs differ from those in Australia (see 'Local laws'). Contact the Australian Embassy in Doha if you require consular or passport assistance in Qatar.

We advise:

Exercise normal safety precautions in Qatar.
