The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MoCI) has reduced licensing fees for home businesses to QR300 and simplified the procedures to bring it under the preview of the law.
“The licensing fees of home-based businesses have been reduced from about QR1,500 to QR300 encouraging entrepreneurs to legalise their micro-businesses,” said Head of Commercial Records and Licensing Department at MoCI, Latifa Al Ali.
Speaking to Qatar TV recently, she said that the Ministry also increased home business activities from 15 to 63 to promote micro-entrepreneurship and local investments.
“We have also simplified the procedures for the issuance of home-based business activities as only the QID address of the applicant should match with home address ‘Onwani’ (my address),” said Al Ali.
