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
Currently renews at $73.40/year. Minimum 1-year registration: $73.40 before tax.
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
