Leasing and owner care in Qatar
Across Qatar, brokers are regulated by the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (Aqarat). Non-Qataris can own property only in designated areas, and the list of ten areas was updated in June 2026, including Lusail, The Pearl and West Bay. RealMake records the owner and the area for each unit, so you can see which units sit in designated areas. A one-stop centre in Lusail serves non-Qatari buyers. Qatar has not brought in VAT yet; when it does, RealMake can apply it without a new system. An e-invoicing law has been approved, but dates are still to come.
