I bought a 2nd hand Honda City 2008 a year ago. Now the car istimara has expired 3 days ago. From Qatar Living, I found out that in order to renew my car istimara, I need to do following tasks: </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="normaltext commentsText" style="background-color: #eeeff3; color: #333333; direction: ltr; line-height: 1.28;">1) Vehicle Inspection (since it is 3 years old car now) at Industrial Area (close to Al Muntazah St) - Charge: QAR 75 </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="normaltext commentsText" style="background-color: #eeeff3; color: #333333; direction: ltr; line-height: 1.28;">2) When car has PASSED inspection, go to car insurance and renew my compulsory insurance (I do not want comprehensive insurance) </span></span><br />

<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
In a complete overhaul of the current healthcare system, Qatar will require all residents and visitors of the country to have health insurance by the end of 2014, the <a href="http://www.sch.gov.qa/" style="border: 0px; color: #6a1d44; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Supreme Council of Health</a> has announced.</div>

<br /></div>

Qatar spent more than <a href="http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/qatar/qatar-reports-2-6b-health-care-expenditure-in-2010-1.823495" style="border: 0px; color: #6a1d44; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">$2.6 billion</a> on health care in 2010, and has been working toward a national plan to improve the medical system, which is struggling to meet the needs of the country’s rapidly growing population.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Under the Social Health Insurance plan, the government will be responsible for insuring nationals while the onus of insuring expats will fall on the companies that employ them.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
One possible idea is to link health care to visas, an SCH official said.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Under this scheme, those who visit Qatar will be required to purchase health insurance while obtaining their visitor visas, and the cost will depend on the duration of their stay, the official said.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The SHI will be rolled out in five stages starting in November, but will focus on shoring up coverage for nationals during most of this time.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Expats’ healthcare requirements will be addressed in the fifth and final stage toward the end of 2014, the draft law states.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
