Officially established in 1987, Qatar Telecom (Qtel) has grown to one of the most diverse integrated operators in the Middle East region, offering a range of world-class mobile phone, fixed line phone, cable TV, entertainment and technology services to domestic customers and businesses. Committed to transparency, the Qtel Group has expanded its footprint from 1 to 17 markets in just a few years, serving more than 74 million customers today across the Middle East, North Africa, the Asian subcontinent and South East Asia.

With over 20 years’ experience in supporting the people of Qatar, we benefit from a deep connection with our customers as well as a deep understanding of their needs and expectations.

Our base within the Middle East continues to strengthen, positioning the Qtel Group as the largest telecoms provider in terms of number of operations within the region. The successful launch of commercial operations in Palestine, which was a major achievement in 2009, and the warm welcome we received in that market, reflects the opportunities that exist for us to further expand.
