QAR to USD 2026 Forecasts

Analysis of recent rial → dollar forecasts for 2026. We collate forecasts from respected FX analysts together with the latest Qatari rial to US dollar performance and trends.

 

The current market bias for the Qatari Riyal (QAR) against the US Dollar (USD) is range-bound.

Key drivers include:

  • Recent cuts to the Qatar Central Bank's interest rates have aligned with expectations of future US rate cuts, potentially supporting the QAR's stability.
  • Qatar's economy is set to grow due to a significant increase in liquefied natural gas production capacity, which could bolster demand for the QAR.
  • Expectations of a weaker USD in the near future due to further Federal Reserve rate cuts may support the QAR.

The near-term trading range suggests the QAR to USD exchange rate will likely remain within its recent levels.

One upside risk could be stronger-than-expected economic growth in Qatar, which may increase QAR demand. Conversely, further global shifts away from the USD, particularly in ASEAN countries, could exert downward pressure on the QAR.
