QAR (Qatari rial)

For a payment to a bank in Qatar, a Bank Identification Code (BIC) is required. This is also known as a SWIFT address (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication). This is automatically generated based on the IBAN provided.

• An IBAN in Qatar is mandatory and consists of 29 characters. Do not use spaces, dashes, commas or slashes (/). Example: QA58 DOHB 0000 1234 5678 90AB CDEFG
• Enter the full name of the person receiving the money in the "Recipient Name" field. Do not use abbreviations.

These international transfers are subject to private transfer fees and business transfer fees. If you choose for the OUR option, the beneficiary will not be charged anything by their bank. ABN AMRO charges an OUR fee (PDF, 156 KB) for this.

Do you want to know when the money will be in the beneficiary's account? Then check what the processing times for payments are. And for more details per currency type, please consult this overview of cut-off times (PDF, 138 KB) .
