Understanding the National Address Law
As per the law no, 24 of 2017 on the National Address, the Qatar government has issued notification that every resident and citizen of Qatar has to register themselves a permanent national address through the electronic means such as Metrash2 application before 26 July 2020. If they fail to do so, a fine will be charged against them.
