Alright, so I’ve been wanting to get my hands on a Qatar driving license for a while now, and I finally figured out how to do it online. It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be, but it definitely took some digging around. Let me walk you through how I did it, step-by-step.
Get Started with Metrash2 App
First things first, I downloaded the Metrash2 app. This app is like the hub for a bunch of government services in Qatar, and it’s where you gotta start the process. After I downloaded it I registered an account, which was pretty straightforward – just had to punch in my QID and a few other details.
Submit Your Application
Once I was in, I found the traffic section and looked for the option to apply for a new driving license. There was a form that needed to be filled out. I carefully entered all my personal information, making sure everything was accurate because, you know, you don’t wanna mess up official documents.

- Filled in my personal details.
- Double-checked all the info.
Upload Required Documents
Next up, I had to upload some documents. They wanted a copy of my passport, my QID, and a photo. I took some clear pictures with my phone and uploaded them. Pretty standard stuff, but gotta make sure the photos are clear and meet their requirements.
- Took pics of my passport and QID.
- Uploaded a recent passport-size photo.
Pay the Fees
After all the documents were uploaded, it was time to pay the fees. I just followed the prompts, chose my payment method, and made the payment. It wasn’t too bad, and definitely cheaper than going through a driving school, from what I hear.
Wait for Approval
Then came the waiting game. I submitted everything and just had to wait for them to process it. It took a few days, but I kept checking the app for updates. Finally, I got a notification that my application was approved! I was super stoked.
Collect Your License
Once it was approved, I got instructions on where to pick up my license. I went down to the designated traffic department, showed my ID, and they handed me my brand new Qatar driving license. It felt pretty awesome to hold it in my hands after all that.
- Headed to the traffic department.
- Showed my ID.
- Got my new license!
And that’s pretty much it. It was a bit of a process, but doing it online made it way more convenient. If you follow these steps, you should be able to get your Qatar driving license online too. Good luck, and drive safe!
