Discover Qatar in partnership with Qatar Airways Holidays updated their website Tuesday night to reflect the 10-night self-funded quarantine packages in 3, 4 or 5-star hotel accommodation for arrivals into Doha on flights from Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka only.
RELATED: Mandatory quarantine for travellers from 6 countries, including vaccinated people: MoPH
All passengers arriving on flights originating from or transiting via Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka, will be required to stay at one of a specified group of hotels, for which you can use the search calendar on Discover Qatar website to check availability. Prices vary depending on the hotel chosen.
The quarantine will be for a mandated period of 10 days. You will not be permitted to board your flight without a confirmed quarantine reservation.
PCR test taken within 48 hours of the flight (negative result) departure must be presented at check-in to be able to board your flight.
There are no exemptions from quarantine for those who have been vaccinated or have previously tested positive.
Discover Qatar will advise you of any changes to your booking and quarantine requirement on arrival.
You will not be asked to pay any additional costs between your original hotel booked and one of the mandatory Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka Quarantine hotels if there is a price difference. Equally, you will be eligible to claim a refund if your original quarantine booking was more expensive than the options available.
If you have already made your hotel reservation in a different hotel, and are arriving after 29 April 00:00 local time Doha, Discover Qatar will contact you before departure to confirm that your original booking is canceled. You will need to re-book a hotel following the instructions provided in the e-mail.
You will be required to pay for your new booking in full. Your original booking will be refunded within 15 working days. Read here for more information about this change.
All new bookings will be required to book a Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka Quarantine hotel for your mandatory quarantine stay in Qatar.
All new bookings will be required to present a Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka Quarantine hotel voucher to be permitted to board a flight departing from or transiting via Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka.
Any bookings made on or after 27 April 19:00 Doha local time which are not in a Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka Quarantine hotel for a flight originating in or transiting via Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka will be canceled at 100% cancellation fee.
If you are not on a flight from or transiting via Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka you should not book a Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines and Sri Lanka Quarantine hotel for your mandatory quarantine stay in Qatar; you will not be permitted to check-in and you will not be entitled to a refund.
If you are not flying from or transiting via Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines and Sri Lanka you should read the information to ensure you book your correct mandated quarantine hotel here.
