The Ministry of Interior, in cooperation with the Public Works Authority Ashghal and the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy (SC), recently opened the passenger lounge at Abu Samra port on a trial basis, in preparation for FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™.

Abu Samra, located on Salwa Road, is the land border between Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

Fans travelling by road need their approved Hayya Card to enter Qatar, as well as any other documentation required by immigration and customs. The nearest metro station to the port is the Al Messila Metro Station (Green line). A bus service will be made available to fans during the tournament season.

Ashghal has also partially completed the parking for cars and buses in the port, to serve the passenger lounge.
