However, it is mandatory to provide the health status of the visitor on the Ehteraz application, when entering healthcare facilities in Qatar.
The decision will come into effect on 1 November.
Citizens and residents of Qatar are also no longer required to take the rapid antigen test or the PCR test 24 hours after arrival in Qatar.
Precautionary measures by residents and visitors need to be followed, including being fully vaccinated and testing if COVID-19 symptoms are experienced.
