This one-stop customs service helps to reduce the time spent on goods clearance and inspection rates to just a few minutes.
All goods that enter or leave Qatar's customs border must undergo clearance and control, and all shipping agents must provide a list of goods to the Qatar Customs Authority as well and this can be done through Al-Nadeeb. All clearing agents and importers can also get information regarding tariffs and also calculate duty through it. (Hukoomi)
