My daughter is 13, almost 14,so when we go to the States when she is 15,and gets a permit,will they transform it into a qatari liscence,or does she have to be 18?

LOL!! I'd just like to clear my name here. That was my daughter posting under my user name! I'd never in a million years consider letting her drive here, but, like most American teenagers, she just can't wait to get behind the wheel. Sorry for the wasted space!!!

Enough inexperienced drivers on the roads here now, don't add to the number of potential mishaps by allowing her to drive in the streets of Qatar, better to get some experience back home..

I guess she would have to wait till she's 18!

Plus, as others said.. I'm sure it will be best for her!
