Bangladeshi nationals can seek permanent residence in Qatar under Law No. 10 of 2018. Eligibility rests on long lawful residence or on a qualifying property investment.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Qatar does not exclude Bangladeshi citizens. The standard route requires long lawful residence in Qatar, generally twenty years if born abroad or ten years if born in Qatar, with limited time spent outside the country.
Applicants also show stable income, good conduct and a clean record. A separate investment route is open to property buyers.
There are two main paths. The residence based path rewards long term lawful residents who meet the income and conduct tests. The investment path grants a permanent residence card to people who buy approved property at or above the set value and meet a minimum annual presence.
Special discretionary categories also exist under the law, for example for people who provide valued services to the country.
Applications are assessed by the Ministry of Interior, which sets the process and any annual caps. Confirm the current timeline before you plan.
The standard route has no large investment but demands long residence. The investment route turns on a property purchase. The figures below are indicative.
| Item | Indicative amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Qualifying property investment | From 3,650,000 Qatari riyals | About 1,000,000 US dollars in approved zones |
| Minimum presence on the investment route | At least 90 days a year | Confirm the current rule |
| Standard residence requirement | Twenty years, or ten if born in Qatar | Lawful and largely continuous |
