When it's 6:00 PM in Berlin, it's 7:00 PM in Doha.
German passport holders get a visa waiver on arrival in Qatar for stays up to 90 days within a 180-day period. No fee, no advance application. Your passport must have at least 6 months of validity. You will need a confirmed hotel booking or a host letter and a return or onward ticket.
The 90-day allowance is generous by Gulf standards. If you need longer, apply for a tourist visa extension through the Ministry of Interior portal before your 90 days expire. Qatar does not stamp passports by default anymore. They use an electronic entry system, so no Israel-stamp concerns for onward travel.
