Qatar's country domain
Register a .qa domain
.qa is the two-letter shorthand every Qatar-facing site should sit next to your global .com. Qatar's ccTLD is operated by the Qatar Domains Registry (QDR) under the Communications Regulatory Authority (CRA). We register it and configure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for your mail at no extra charge — one flat number, no upsells tacked on later.
$73.40/yr
Renews at the same price. No tricks.
Privacy free
Who picks .qa?
- Businesses opening or serving customers in Qatar who want a locally recognizable domain
- Agencies and consultancies building Qatar-market sites for clients
- Organizations that already hold a global .com and want a dedicated Qatar-facing property
What it signals
A .qa domain marks a business, agency, or organization as deliberately anchored in Qatar, distinct from an international .com — commonly registered as a companion to an existing global presence rather than a replacement for it.
Pros
- Immediately reads as Qatar-specific to local customers and partners
- A clean, unambiguous two-letter country code with no ambiguity about what it stands for
- Sits naturally next to a .com you already own for geo-targeted campaigns
- Mail setup handled at no charge — SPF/DKIM/DMARC configured so your new domain is deliverable from day one
Watch-outs
- Third-level tiers (.com.qa, .net.qa, .org.qa) are widely reported to carry real restrictions (Qatar trade license, registered trademark, or telecom/nonprofit status) distinct from base .qa — confirm current requirements with the registry before assuming eligibility

Common questions about .qa domains
How much does a .qa domain cost?
A .qa domain is $73.40 per year at Modusdom, and it renews at the same $73.40 every year — no discounted first year that jumps later.
Does a .qa domain renew at the same price?
Yes. Our renewal price equals our first-year price — written into our promises — so your .qa stays $73.40/yr in year 1, year 2, and year 10. Most registrars advertise a cheap first year, then quietly renew higher.
Do I get free WHOIS privacy on a .qa domain?
Yes — free WHOIS privacy is included on every .qa domain, hiding your name, address, email and phone from the public WHOIS record at no extra cost.
Can I transfer an existing .qa domain to Modusdom?
Yes. Transfers are free and add a year to your registration. Unlock the domain at your current registrar, copy the EPP/auth code, and start the transfer — we walk you through it, and your website and email keep working the whole time.
