Poland to Qatar visa requirements
Polish ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for short tourist visits to Qatar. Poland is in Qatar's Group A visa-waiver list, granting visa-free entry for up to 90 days within a 180-day period, issued free of charge on arrival. Qatar grants Polish ordinary passport holders visa-free entry (officially termed "visa-free entry," formerly "visa on arrival"). Poland sits in Qatar's Group A waiver category, which allows a stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period, with multiple entries permitted, and the waiver is issued at no cost at the port of entry. Qatar is NOT part of the Schengen area, so the EU Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to entering Qatar — those rules apply in the reverse direction (Qataris visiting the EU). To use the waiver, the passport must be valid at least six months from the date of arrival and the traveller must hold a confirmed onward or return ticket; immigration may also ask for proof of accommodation and sufficient funds. Travellers are advised (not strictly required) to hold valid health insurance covering Qatari facilities. Those wanting fast-track e-gate processing may pre-register for a free Hayya entry permit online, though it is optional for Group A nationals. No application, fee, or pre-arrival visa is needed for a standard short tourist visit.
