The annual renewals checklist for your business in Qatar
One expired document can block other transactions. That is why we recommend a clear renewal schedule for every business. These are the main documents renewed regularly:
Business documents
- Commercial registration. Commercial Registration Renewal ›
- Commercial licence. Trade Licence Issuance or Renewal ›
- Establishment card.
- Commercial lease and its attestation. Commercial or Residential Lease Registration ›
Staff documents
- Residence permits.
- Health cards and food-handler health certificates. Health Certificate for Food Handlers ›
- Attested employment contracts.
Practical tips
- Start each renewal at least a month before the due date.
- Settle violations before renewing, as some block the transaction.
- Keep digital copies of every document in one file.
- Make one person responsible for the schedule.
