The Qatar Central Bank has decided to continue the remote work system for all financial institutions operating in the State of Qatar, limiting remote work to no more than 70% of each institution’s total employees and requiring 30% to work from their workplaces from 9 March 2026 until further notice. Remote work allocation should prioritise mothers and persons with disabilities, provided that work requirements are not affected. Each financial institution must designate the 30% of employees who will resume workplace attendance under the arrangement, which follows the Central Bank’s earlier remote work statement of 2 March 2026.
