Qatar’s Government Communication Office announced the temporary closure of in-person money exchange and transfer service offices, effective from 26 March.

This is part of wider measures introduced by the government to close non-essential shops and public spaces to tackle the COVID-19. The most important thing the people of Qatar can do to contain the spread of the virus is to reduce day-to-day contact with each other.

During the closure period, money can be transferred through online exchange services, mobile applications and Ooredoo Money.

The guidance on how to access and use these alternative services will be made available in different languages through websites and channels in Qatar.
