About Qatar
Perhaps one of the most dynamic markets in the world at present, Qatar is experiencing a major and sustained period of growth as it invests heavily in advance of hosting the FIFA World Cup in 2022. One of the world’s richest states, the tournament is just one part of its strategy to enhance the country’s profile and revolutionise its infrastructure. Opportunities abound for lawyers in construction and projects but as the market matures, increasingly also for corporate and commercial lawyers too. In addition to the professional opportunity, Qatar also typically offers high-tax free salaries and an enjoyable lifestyle.
