Doha: The Ministry of Commerce and Industry has launched the Qatar Business Map portal on its website.
This follows the requirements of Law No. (1) of 2020 on the Unified Economic Register, which aims to support the transparency of economic and financial transactions by compiling basic information, data, and documents for economic establishments, legal arrangements, non-profit organisations, and freelancers, and making them available to the public and to stakeholders. This step also aligns with the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) requirements.
The Business Map portal provides a comprehensive database for users, allowing them to view the investment advantages of Qatar’s various regions through a search service for commercial establishments per region, and for the various available commercial activities. The portal also offers statistics on the number of commercial licenses registered in each municipality, new and signed-off commercial licenses, and the latest commercial establishments registered in Qatar.
The Ministry indicated that the public and all concerned parties can view information and data on the various commercial establishments by visiting the Qatar Business Map page via the following link: https://businessmap.moci.gov.qa
The Qatar Business Map portal is a database for entrepreneurs and investors to facilitate their access to target customers. The portal also aims to help users to select the ideal location to establish a business and choose a lucrative business activity. It also helps in identifying the location of potential competitors. The portal helps find residential areas for entrepreneurs and investors to establish their commercial activities, in addition to analysing the location to understand the target customer base and to measure the feasibility of the commercial project in a specific area.
