Eid al-Fitr Qatar introduces new coronavirus restrictions
All shops, with the exception of food and catering shops, pharmacies, restaurants delivery services and a few other essential services, will also be closed during the same time period, which coincides with the official Eid al-Fitr holidays.
All industrial activities, contracting companies, and engineering supervisory works – construction sites and engineering offices running under it – are exempted from the orders, according to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
Qatar has announced a series of new measures aimed at stopping the spread of the new coronavirus, including halting most commercial activities until May 30.
Starting May 22, all citizens and residents should also have the EHTERAZ app on their phones when leaving their homes. The app uses GPS and Bluetooth technology to help track COVID-19 cases, informing users if they come into contact with those who have tested positive.
