How much is your business worth in Qatar? Most Qatar businesses trade between 3–18× EBITDA, technology and digital businesses attract the upper end, construction the lower end, with the exact figure set by EBITDA margin, growth rate, QFC vs onshore structure, and deal type. Business valuation in Qatar is the process of determining that fair market value using internationally recognised methods, DCF, EV/EBITDA multiples, Net Asset Value, or Sum-of-the-Parts, compliant with IVS. Independent valuation is required for QFMA-regulated M&A and QSE-listed transactions, QFC entity filings, Qatar Vision 2030 privatisation, Islamic finance structuring, and QICCA arbitration. Corvian Advisory delivers IVS-compliant reports from QAR 3,500, in 2–4 weeks.
The Qatar Financial Centre operates under a distinct English common-law framework separate from onshore Qatari civil law, valuations for QFC-registered entities must account for this jurisdictional distinction, licensing value, and the different counterparty universe QFC status enables.
Qatar National Vision 2030 privatisation and a significant Islamic finance sector (QIB, QIIB, Masraf Al Rayan, Dukhan Bank) add further layers requiring AAOIFI-consistent methodology for murabaha, ijara, sukuk and musharaka structures.
