Part of the Qatar LEI knowledge hub — back to the Qatar pillar.
Getting and keeping an LEI in Qatar follows a clear workflow: apply with entity details and the MOCI Commercial Registration (CR) number evidence, pass validation, the LEI is issued, then renewed annually and transferable between LOUs.
Apply — provide the entity's legal details and registration evidence from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI) commercial register, or the Qatar Financial Centre Authority (QFCA) register for QFC-registered firms.
Validate — data completeness and applicant authority are checked.
Issue — the 20-character LEI goes live and is published to the GLEIF Global Index.
Use — in reporting, KYC and settlement.
Renew — annually, with reminders at 90/30/7/1 days.
Transfer — move the LEI to TNV-LEI free, code unchanged.
Legal name, registered address and status are validated against the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MOCI) commercial register, or the Qatar Financial Centre Authority (QFCA) register for QFC-registered firms; relationships are recorded as Level 2 data.
Fast-Track LEI issuance in 2 to 4 UK working hours is available subject to data completeness, applicant authority and successful compliance validation.
