Word from the Ambassador
Welcome to the official website of the Embassy of the State of Qatar in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I hope this website will provide you with useful information about the State of Qatar, its people and the culture it shares with the brotherly Saudi people. I also wish that this website will meet your desire to obtain everything you need to know, especially tourist sites, museums, and modern style of the city of Doha and the various cities and regions of Qatar.
In my responsibility as Ambassador of my country in Riyadh, I will spare no effort to develop and strengthen brotherly relations between the State of Qatar and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and their brotherly peoples.
Relations between the State of Qatar and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia have been durable and strong since their establishment to date, based on close fraternal bonds and ties of kinship that bind the two brotherly peoples. We highlight the keenness of the leadership of the two countries to consolidate bilateral cooperation in various fields. In addition, mutual brotherly visits have achieved positive results that contributed to expanding cooperation in various fields.
In this regard, I refer to the role of Qatari-Saudi Coordination Council in advancing, strengthening and developing strong brotherly relations. This is especially evident through the outcomes of the 7th Meeting of the Council held in Doha in December 2023, co-chaired by His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, Amir of the State of Qatar, and His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The meeting was also attended by Their Highnesses, Excellencies, members of the Council, heads of sub-committees and members of the executive committee on both sides, during which a number of agreements and memorandums of understanding were signed, which would enhance cooperation between the two brotherly countries in all fields.
