Box 1-9
: Evolution of Qatar’s Population 
Censuses 
The traveler J. G. Lorimer estimated the population 
of Qatar in 1904 at about a mere 27 thousand 
people, while the population of the State of Qatar 
was estimated in 1970 at about 111 thousand 
people in the first population census, conducted by 
a foreign company. However, a comprehensive 
census of population, housing and establishments 
was not conducted by the State’s statistical 
agencies until 1986, by which time the population 
reached about 369,000. After that, comprehensive 
population censuses were fielded regularly in 1997, 
2004, 2010 and most recent
2020. 
The vast majority of the rapid population increases 
that the State of Qatar has witnessed since 1986 
are attributed to waves of expatriate workers to 
meet the local demand for labor from all disciplines 
to work in various development activities. At an 
annual growth rate of 3.4% according to the 1997 
census, these laborers continued to flow into the 
country during the period (1997-2003) to reach a 
total of 744 thousand people, i.e., an annual 
growth rate of 4.8% according to the 2004 census. 
The development renaissance witnessed by the 
State of Qatar at all levels during the period (2005 - 
2010) emerging as a result of the development of 
the oil and gas industry, and the returns of its large 
financial exports, saw the population of the State 
of Qatar doubling due to the influx of expatriate 
workers coming from all over the world, with all 
specialties and qualifications during the same 
period, bringing the population to 1.7 million 
according to the 2010 census, with a growth rate of 
128.4%. 
And most recently, the General Census of 
Population, Housing, and Establishments for the 
year 2020 was conducted by the Planning and 
Statistics Authority, whose preliminary results 
showed that the population of the State of Qatar 
amounted to about 2.846 million, an increase of 
67.5% compared to the 2010 census, but when 
compared to 1986, the growth is about 650%.
