The Qatar Chamber (QC) has formed a Sub-committee for Travel and Tourism Agencies, operating under its main Tourism and Exhibitions Committee, to help advance industry standards and promote sustainable growth within the sector.
The announcement to form the Sub-committee for Travel and Tourism Agencies came during a meeting of Qatar Chamber’s Tourism and Exhibitions Committee, headed by HE Member of the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Committee, Sheikh Hamad bin Ahmed bin Abdulla Al-Thani, with the attendance of other committee members.
The Sub-committee for Travel and Tourism Agencies is tasked with addressing the most significant challenges currently facing travel and tourism service providers, ensuring that the concerns and operational obstacles of agencies are clearly identified and communicated. It will work in close coordination with the main Tourism and Exhibitions Committee to develop effective solutions, streamline processes, and remove barriers that hinder sector growth.
In addition, the Sub-committee for Travel and Tourism Agencies will actively engage with travel and tourism agency owners to gather their insights, perspectives, and recommendations on improving the business environment and enhancing the overall development of the tourism sector. This collaborative approach aims to ensure that policies and initiatives are aligned with the needs of industry stakeholders and contribute meaningfully to strengthening Qatar’s tourism ecosystem.
During the meeting, HE Sheikh Hamad bin Ahmed bin Abdulla Al-Thani said that the formation of the Sub-committee for Travel and Tourism Agencies aims to overcome the difficulties facing travel and tourism agencies and to coordinate, via QC, with the concerned authorities in the country to resolve these obstacles.
He noted that the sub-committee will be a unified platform for coordination and cooperation among travel and tourism agencies, which will significantly streamline the main committee’s work in identifying proposals in order to raise it to the relevant authorities, stressing QC’s keenness to support the private tourism sector and enhance its contribution to developing the tourism sector and raising the efficiency of tourism services in Qatar.
