I AM JUST WONDERING,HOW COME PEOPLE ANSWER QUESTIONS WITHOUT A PROPER KNOWLEDGE,AT ANY COST,NO BODY CAN OWN A VEHICLE IN HIS/HER NAME,WITHOUT A PROPER DRIVING LICENSE.
AND IF THERE IS A COMPANY REGD IN HIS/HER OWNERSHIP ,THEY CAN GO FOR A CAR IN COMPANY NAME AND NOT PERSONALLY.

I think, the things are you got to be a residence, have enough money and/or bank account..khalas, the car is yours. many people buy a new or used car before they pass their driving course, by cash or bank loan

First I thought it is a foolish question

but the answers nearly baffled me.

Till 2000, it was not possible to own a car withoiut a driving license

yes u can own car under your name and also you can take car loan from bank without driving licence but done drive without valid driving licence if you caught by police, first they will bring you to police station and you have to call your local boses (Qatari0 to get you out from police station and if you can't get your boses they will put u in jail either in Umm Salal or Maamura until your sponsor come. Lastly either you will get fine or you will depot from Qatar. Done drive without driving licence.....
