About Doha
Doha ranks among Qatar's notable cities, with a population of about 340,000. The city keeps UTC+3 as its standard offset, under the Asia/Qatar zone. Like much of Asia, it takes its bearings from that offset. Come peak summer, sunrise lands near 4:53 AM and the day stretches to about 14 hours of light. Whether you're scheduling a call or travel, the clock above keeps Doha time to the second.
