Why a call to Qatar fails
The exit code is wrong for your country
00 works from Qatar, Europe, and most of the world. Dial 00 974 before the 8-digit number. From the US and Canada the exit code is 011, so dial 011 974 instead.
The number does not take calls from abroad
Freephone numbers that start with 800, and audiotext numbers that start with 900, are non-geographic and often cannot be reached from outside Qatar.
