The present Indian Ambassador to Qatar is Dr. Deepak Mittal(IFS). He arrived in Doha on 06 August, 2020 and presented his credentials on 12 August, 2020.[1] The former Ambassador, Deepa Gopalan Wadhwa, was the first woman Ambassador to any Gulf state.

The Embassy is located at villa no. 86 & 90, street no. 941, Al Eithra Street, Zone 63, Onaiza, PO Box No. 2788, Doha, Qatar.[2] Prior to its relocation in Onaiza in 2016, the Embassy was situated in Al Hilal, in a building that was opened in 2010 to replace its prior Embassy which was also in Al Hilal.[3]

The Embassy of India, Doha was established in the State of Qatar in 1971. It promotes political, economic, and commercial relations between the Republic of India and the State of Qatar, and looks after the welfare of the Indian community in Qatar providing consular services as well as other services including assistance in labour-related issues. It provides visa services and other guidance to Qatari and other nationals intending to visit India.

The Embassy has three nodal community organizations, the Indian Cultural Centre (for promotion of Indian art and culture), the Indian Community Benevolent Forum (for Community Welfare) and Indian Business Professionals Network (for promotion of business), directly working under it.[citation needed]
