Leasing and owner care in Al Wakrah
Leasing in Al Wakrah follows Qatar-wide rules. Brokers are regulated by the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (Aqarat), and RealMake can keep the broker's details on any lease they arranged. Non-Qatari ownership is limited to designated areas, so most Al Wakrah landlords are Qatari owners or companies. Rents are recorded in QAR with a Friday-Saturday weekend in the calendar. Qatar has no VAT law in force yet, and the system is ready to switch VAT on when Qatar introduces it. No e-invoicing dates have been announced, although a law has been approved.
