I had heard that as of 2009, all Americans (even with US Licenses) had to take the test for a Qatari license. I wish it was still automatic transference, but that's why I wanted to know from those who have taken the test since 2009. I had also heard that if you know someone, you can get it automatically transferred, which sounds strange...but I would believe it if it were true.
Thanks for the help, all.
