yes you can. all you have to do is bring your passport and Qatar ID. Initial deposit for Doha Bank is 1000QR, Ahli Bank 2000QR and CBQ 4000QR. I opened one for Doha. This is saving account. According to the customer service personnel they don't have maintaining balance. But you are required to deposit the above mentioned amount. After 1 week I got my atm card from Doha Bank.

You can open Saving Account as most Banks require a minimum balance 500-2000 to be maintained for it and will bear no monthly charges and there is no need for salry certificate. But U will not get cheque book. Cheque book is offered only on Current account.
