Customs and Immigration for General Aviation

Read the official rule

The Qatar Civil Aviation Authority mandates that airlines inform passengers about customs regulations regarding currency and valuables before arriving in Qatar. If travelers carry cash or negotiable instruments valued at 50,000 Qatari Riyals or more, they must fill out a declaration form for Customs. Failing to declare accurately could result in legal consequences.

Key points

  • Airlines must announce customs regulations to passengers before arrival.
  • Travelers with cash or valuables worth 50,000 Qatari Riyals or more must declare them.
  • Declaration forms are available in the immigration hall upon arrival or departure.
  • False declarations can lead to legal action.
