Hi!
I got my Qatari driving licence recently,聽 it took me few hours and the cost is around 50 USD, just needed a letter from my employer,聽 to fill in a from provided by traffic department and get it stamped by my employer, my Qatari resident permit, my passport and voil脿! But as far as I know for some nationalities driving lessons are needed as well. And yes you can drive with a Qatari DL in the UAE if you are going for tourism or work If you become a resident then you would need an Emirati DL. Visa on arrival, but it is not free, but not really expensive.聽
Well good luck!
