Qatar does not levy personal income or capital gains tax on an individual’s private investment gains (including crypto), so a relocating individual is not currently taxed on crypto disposals unless they are carrying on a taxable business through a Qatari entity.
“Income tax constitutes an annual levy on the aggregate income of taxpayers stemming from sources within Qatar in the preceding tax year. ... individual (natural) person who is not conducting a taxable activity in the State, is not subject to income tax.” — General Tax Authority (Qatar)
