On 6th March 2025, Qatar Stock Exchange (QSE) has announced the removal of the minimum trading commission of QAR 30, replacing it with a fixed proportional commission rate of 0.00275 with no minimum threshold. This change will take effect on Sunday, March 16, 2025.
This initiative aligns with Qatar’s Third National Development Strategy (2024-2030) and Qatar’s Third Financial Sector Strategy (3FSS), which aims to foster sustainable economic growth by creating an inclusive and dynamic investment environment. By removing the minimum trading commission, QSE seeks to empower investors, particularly retail investors, by reducing transaction costs and broadening market access.
The revised commission structure is expected to boost market liquidity, attract a more diverse investor base, and enhance the overall efficiency and competitiveness of Qatar’s financial market on both a regional and global scale.
