Qatar Is First Gulf Nation to Grant Expats Permanent Residency

Qatar has officially made permanent residency an option for a limited number of foreigners, a landmark development in the energy-rich Gulf.
Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani issued a decree allowing a maximum of 100 expatriates to gain permanent residency each year, giving them access to a generous welfare system and commercial rights previously reserved for citizens of the world’s biggest exporter of natural gas. The Ministry of Interior will decide on applications, according to the Sept. 4 decree.
