About Qatar Standard

A Doha-focused news and data site covering Qatar and the Gulf, in English and Arabic.

Who we are

Qatar Standard reports on Qatar and the wider Gulf: diplomacy, the economy, regional politics and daily life. Alongside the news, we publish Qatar in numbers, data stories built from official statistics, such as what workers earn and how prices have moved.

Editorial standards

  • We name our sources and link to them, so readers can check the original.
  • Figures are traced to official data. Data pages list the publisher, dataset and period, and explain how each number was calculated.
  • Where official data has limits, such as no breakdown by nationality, we say so on the page.
  • We separate reporting from analysis, and label analysis as analysis.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, email [email protected]. We fix confirmed errors and note the correction at the foot of the article.

How we use tools

We use software, including AI tools, to monitor sources and draft. Automated checks match every figure against its source before publication.
