German envoy leads flag-raising ceremony at new embassy premises

German ambassador to Qatar, Claudius Fischbach, led a flag-raising ceremony on Sunday to formally open the German embassy’s new premises at the Tornado Tower’s 34th and 33rd floor (consular section) in West Bay.

Consular and all other services will be fully operational and open to visitors. All visitors are asked to book an appointment through the embassy's website (www.doha.diplo.de). The embassy's contact details remain the same and are available on its website. “We are proud to have moved into one of the landmark towers in West Bay. We are convinced that here, with a great view on everything happening in this centre of activity, we can do even more for the continuous expansion of German-Qatari relations in all dimensions,” the ambassador said.
