There are lots of Arab looking (and I presume with Arab names) people who shop at the QDC.
I don't think you'll have an issue with the QDC people. You will, however, need a salary letter from your employer. Some employers do not give letters for the QDC.
I can't recall if they asked your religion but you can put down Christian if they do, they don't follow you home to check and it's not indicated on your Canadian passport.
Is it shown on your national ID? It's not shown on mine. Otherwise, don't worry about it.
Darlington many things that are routinely tolerated or even officially sanctioned in UAE are haram here. QDC is the only liquor and pork outlet. They might be reopening their second shop on the Pearl after Ramadan - or then again they might not. There are no 'holes-in-the-wall' selling unlicensed grog in Qatar.
Qatar's winter months are brimming with unmissable experiences, from the AFC Asian Cup 2023 to the World Aquatics Championships Doha 2024 and a variety of outdoor adventures and cultural delights.

Hi there,
Please can someone tell me if We are obliged to indicate our religion in the form( alcohol permi)
We are canadian and muslim( originaly frm morocco) . It is true when we put muslim they dont give us a permit.
If i put nothing it will pass? Or if i put another religion they have to verify??
Thx

In Abu Dhabi there was a very reasonable unlicensed alcohol outlet - is that the same in Qatar?
They provided very good quality black bin liners!
Pork was available in pork rooms at Spinneys - again anything similar in Qatar?
I can't wait for it to open, my booze stocks are almost depleted. Are the bars open on the first day of Eid?
I think it should be open from Monday from what I hear.... Prepare for the rush....
LOL No desperation
I am not a heavy drinker and lived quite happily without pork when it wasn't available here.
However it is now available and I would just like to work out when I can include it in my routine shopping again.
Where's our QDC expert? The one with the bar in the boot of his car? :p
I can smell the desperation in the air.......
