Under the direction of government authorities of the State of Qatar, as a preventive measure to limit the spread of Coronavirus, entry to Qatar is temporarily suspended for all those travelling from the following countries: Bangladesh, China, Egypt, India, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Syria and Thailand. Only those with onward connections through Hamad International Airport are accepted for travel.
I know of couple of people who made the trip last week and didn't had any issue. However, they reserve the right to deny anyone at port of entry if they see that you have traveled to one of the countries countries with temporary travel suspension or if you have a fever.
