Hi

Does anyone have recommendations for which bank to use in Qatar?

The account will be used to get my salary paid into and transfer funds overseas.

Thanks

Agree with acchabaccha - go with the same bank as your company. Unless you plan to take out a loan in the near future, then go with the bank that you're most likely to get the best loan offer from.

Most of the banks here provide good service to the salaried class and I hardly see much difference among them. You should select a bank where your company has a bank account as it will allow your salary get credited to your account very quickly each month.

Doha Bank Ltd is mostly preferred by the salary class.

I used to use CBQ when I first got here, but I wasn't happy with the service and products - now I use QNB and its fairly ok. But when it comes to sending money back home, CBQ still offers better exchange rates.
