Qatar’s economy expanded by 2% year-on-year in Q4 2025, slowing from a 2.9% growth in the previous period. The moderation was driven by a contraction in mining and quarrying activities, which accounted for 33.8% of GDP and declined 2.4% annually, while non-mining and quarrying activities, representing 66.2% of GDP, rose 4.5%. Within non-mining sectors, the fastest-growing activities included accommodation and food services (+12.8%), construction (+12.6%), and transportation and storage (+10.6%), supported by strong domestic demand, visitor activity, and ongoing infrastructure and public-sector projects. The performance underscores continued progress in diversifying the economy and strengthening non-hydrocarbon sectors, in line with the Third National Development Strategy and Qatar National Vision 2030. On a quarterly basis, Qatar’s GDP contracted by 0.4%, following a 2.3% expansion in the prior period.
