Al-Furjan mobile application does not require any administrative or financial requirement, as it aims to facilitate the application process for citizens and encourage them to apply for Al Furjan markets project. Moreover, the mobile application version provides applicants the opportunity to clearly browse and select among a list of vacant shops according to the required commercial activities, and identify their locations through a map link in the application.

QDB has requested the applicant’s personal number to ensure the candidate holds a Qatari nationality, as the only requirement for applying to the draw. Upon the citizens’ requests, QDB has managed to link the markets pin number with the resident of the applicant pin number and thus allowing applicants who are within the market zone to obtain priority over others. To be selected among the priority list, the applicant must attach a proof such as a document of property ownership or any other similar documents.”
He added: “In compliance with the principle of equal opportunity, and in order to give a chance to people who have not yet benefited from the project, the raffle draw numbers were linked to the personal phone numbers and identity cards of the applicants, noting that existing tenants cannot apply to this raffle as their ID being registered and will be verified through the application process and thus rejected.”
