To answer the-birdie question, I believe it is one of the organization that has to do with aerial navigation whom is the owner of the said establishment.

Not only are they the distributer of liquor, they are also known as the meat market distributor, and I’m not talking about the four legged kind.

Can I have a “H*LL YEAH” if you know what I mean.

You need to have a permit to buy this liquor .

Expatriates living in Qatar can buy alcohol via a permit system. It is also available in licenced restaurants and hotels which may sell alcohol to adult, non-Muslim customers in restricted areas.

The Qatar Distribution Company is the sole importer and retailer of alcohol in the country. They run two shops which are the only places where alcohol can be purchased. They offer a wide range of beverages and a permit is needed to make a purchase. Any alcohol bought must be hidden from view and taken straight home. The amount of alcohol that a person can purchase each month depends on their salary.

Applying for an Alcohol Permit

Alcohol permits are administered by the Qatar Distribution Company and application forms can be obtained at their shop. A permit must be shown to enter the shop. A letter, written in English, is needed to apply for an alcohol permit. If the letter is written in Arabic it is usually accepted if it is accompanied by a stamped translation. The letter must be addressed to the Qatar Distribution Company, be stamped and signed by an authorised person within the company, and include the following information:

The applicant's position within their company

The applicant's basic salary. The word 'basic' must be used. To get a permit a minimum salary is needed (4,000 riyals or 1,100 US dollars)

Whether the applicant receives an accommodation entitlement or has free accommodation

Whether the applicant is married

When applying for a permit an individual must fill in an application form, pay a returnable deposit and state their religion

The following additional documents are also required:

A passport, or equivalent identification (a photocopy is acceptable)
