On 9 September 2025, several explosions were reported in Doha. Stay alert, take official warnings seriously, monitor local media and follow the advice of local authorities.

The security situation in the Middle East is unpredictable. If the regional security situation deteriorates again, this may result in airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel disruptions at short notice.

Terrorist attacks could occur at any time. There have been several terrorist attacks in the Gulf region in recent years. These have occurred at places visited by foreigners. If there’s an attack, leave the affected area straight away if it’s safe to do so (see ‘Safety’).

We advise:

Exercise normal safety precautions in Qatar.
