Verified Oct 7, 2026 · Source: visitqatar.com (opens in a new tab)How to apply
Yellow fever certificate
Arriving from Pakistan, no yellow fever certificate is required: WHO does not list Pakistan as a transmission risk. It can still be demanded if you have been in a risk country shortly before arriving.
Driving on a Pakistan license
Qatar and Pakistan are both party to the 1968 Vienna Convention, so an International Driving Permit issued in Pakistan is one Qatar is bound to recognize.
Whether a permit is required alongside your national license is set by national road law, which we have not checked for this pair.
