Business software built for Qatar

Qatar has one of the highest GDPs per capita in the world and is diversifying hard under Qatar National Vision 2030, with sustained investment in construction, logistics, sport, tourism, financial services and technology. Companies operating onshore, inside QFZA or the Qatar Financial Centre, or across all three, adopt Zoho and Odoo to run finance, sales and operations on a single system.

Why businesses in Qatar choose Shyphan

Contracting, logistics, energy services, hospitality, retail and professional services firms make up the bulk of the Qatari private sector, and a great many of them still run on spreadsheets and disconnected tools. We put a single system in place - quotes, orders, invoices, stock and collections - without asking the team to change how they actually work.

Qatar applies no VAT today. A GCC-wide VAT has been agreed in principle but is not yet in force, so what matters now is excise tax on tobacco, energy and soft drinks, and corporate income tax at 10% on the foreign-owned share of profits - Qatari and GCC-owned entities are largely exempt. Returns are filed with the General Tax Authority through its Dhareeba portal. We configure your finance system for Dhareeba-ready records, riyal and multi-currency working, WPS payroll files and bilingual Arabic and English documents.

Across Qatar

API Development across Qatar

We deliver API development for clients in Doha, Al Rayyan, Al Wakrah, Lusail, Al Khor, Umm Salal, Al Daayen and Mesaieed. Projects run remotely on Qatar hours with on-site workshops in Doha, Al Rayyan and Al Wakrah where discovery or training justifies it.

Qatar runs on trading, contracting, logistics, hospitality and professional services, and almost all of it on lean teams that cannot afford software nobody uses. Whatever the sector, the failure mode is the same: software built without the people who use it, and abandoned within a year. Discovery is where we prevent that.

Best suited to
API Development suits companies whose process does not fit an off-the-shelf product.

A first usable version of a focused product typically ships in six to ten weeks, with a clickable prototype inside the first two so you are reacting to something real rather than to a document.

FAQ

API Development Qatar: questions answered

What makes an API worth paying for?
Documentation, error handling and versioning. Any developer can return JSON. What costs money later is an API that breaks partners on every change, fails silently, or cannot be integrated without a phone call.
Can you build an API over a legacy system?
Often yes, as a facade over the database or an existing interface. Where the legacy system genuinely has no safe access route we will say so rather than building something fragile on top of it.
Do you provide a partner sandbox?
Yes. A sandbox with realistic test data is what turns a partner integration from weeks of back-and-forth into something they can complete on their own.
How much does API development cost in Qatar?
We quote a fixed price in QAR after a discovery session, broken into phases so you are never committing to the whole build on day one. Anyone quoting a number before understanding the process is guessing, and you will pay for that guess later.
What happens after launch?
You own everything: code, repositories, cloud accounts and documentation. Most clients take a monthly support retainer for fixes, security patching and enhancements, but you are free to take it in-house or elsewhere.
Which hours do you work?
Our consultants work Qatar hours (AST, UTC+4), Sunday to Thursday, for workshops, training and support, with cover outside core hours for critical issues.
Do you sign an NDA before we share our data?
Yes, as a matter of course. We also work in a sandbox with masked or sample data wherever the real thing is not needed.
Can you work in Arabic as well as English?
Yes. We deliver training and documentation in either language and build bilingual templates, forms and portals where your customers or staff need Arabic.
Can you work across QFZA, the QFC and onshore entities?
Yes, and it is one of the more common reasons clients call us. The free zones and onshore Qatar have different registration and reporting expectations, so we set the entities up as distinct books with separate document numbering and consolidated reporting on top.
How do you handle Arabic and English documents?
Invoices, quotes and purchase orders can be issued in Arabic or English from the same record, with right-to-left layout where it is needed. Field labels and picklists can carry local terms so the team is not translating in their head every time they open a record.
Do you visit sites in Doha?
Delivery is remote by default, which is what keeps the price down and the timeline short. Where discovery, data migration or end-user training genuinely benefits from being in the room, we schedule on-site attendance in Doha and say so in the quote rather than adding it later.
How long does a build take?
A first usable version of a focused product typically ships in six to ten weeks, with a clickable prototype inside the first two so you are reacting to something real rather than to a document. Larger platforms run in phases of four to six weeks, and we release at the end of each phase rather than holding everything back for a single launch. Scope, integrations and how fast decisions come back from your side set the real number.

Who this is for

Is API Development the right fit for you?

API Development suits companies whose process does not fit an off-the-shelf product. If that is you, a prototype in the first two weeks will tell you more than another month of specification will.

It is a poor fit if an off-the-shelf product already covers ninety per cent of what you need, or if the requirements are still changing weekly. We will say so rather than bill for the discovery.
