FIFA World Cup 2022: Things to keep in mind for your trip to Qatar

Football fans are getting more and more excited as the FIFA World Cup 2022 nears its start date in Qatar on November 20. Without a doubt, World Cup venues transform into nightclubs where fans celebrate all night. All of that, however, is about to alter this year as a result of the Islamic country's stringent regulations.

The laws and cultural practises of Qatar, particularly its rules around alcohol, drugs, sexuality, and dress code, have been requested by fans. Speaking especially about clothing, travellers may want to reconsider their choices in light of the restrictions that Qatar has put in place.

Fans who are travelling from other nations have reportedly been encouraged to wear clothing that is not overly exposing. According to Qatari legislation, if one doesn't do this and shows too much skin, they might potentially go to jail. Additionally, sleeveless tank tops and shirts with objectionable phrases are prohibited, and men who entirely remove their tops risk fines and jail time.

The official tourism website for Qatar states, "Although there is no strict dress code in Qatar, visitors (both men and women) are nonetheless asked to respect the local way of life by refraining from wearing unnecessarily revealing clothing in public. In general, it is advised that both men and women wear clothing that covers their shoulders and knees."

The FIFA website echoed this and stated that ladies could wear whatever they pleased as long as they were mindful of Qatar's stringent restrictions.

In addition, modern cameras have been installed in the stadiums to keep an eye on the spectators. The World Cup, which will take place from November 20 to December 18, will feature 32 teams. The host team, Qatar, will compete against the Ecuadorian team in the opening game.
