I have a US drivers license from the state of florida. How do i convert this into a Qatari license in order to drive for the 2 months that I am here. I dont want to spend money and go to the driving schools and do their tests and what not.

I hear that a US license can be converted here!!!

It's easy to convert a US drivers' license to a Qatar one, but you need your residency permit first.

I'm sure if you are only here for a few months then you could rent a car on your US license. I assume you are not buying a car for the short time you are here?

If you have to switch to a Qatari license then most companies have a driver or the likes that knows the system pretty well.

Hope that helps a little.
