Located in Doha, QFC is a hub that facilitates businesses' entry into Qatar, providing tax benefits, legal

Types of Businesses Allowed in QFC Initially focused on the financial services sector, QFC has expanded its reach, allowing for a wide range of businesses, thus promoting Business formation in Qatar across various sectors:
4. 1. Financial Services – Industries such as insurance, banking, asset management, and Islamic finance find an ideal platform for growth and company formation in Qatar. 2.
