The national emblem of Qatar (Arabic: شعار قطر) is one of the official symbols of the state of Qatar (Arabic: دولة قطر, romanized: Dawlat Qatar). The emblem was initially adopted six years after the termination of the British protectorate,[1] with the gained independence as a country under Sheikh Ahmad bin Ali Al Thani,[2] and was designed under the reign the Emir of Qatar Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani in 1976.[2]
The latest version of the national emblem was unveiled on 15 September 2022 at the National Museum of Qatar. The new emblem also features the historical Qatari symbols found on the previous emblem: the founder's sword, palm trees, sea and the traditional boat, except all in the maroon colour placed against a white backdrop.[3]
The official interpretation published by the Amiri Diwan (the sovereign body and the administrative office of the Emir)[4] is as follows.[2]
The Coat of Arms of the State of Qatar depicts a variety of meanings and values of different geographical and cultural connotations. It reflects an interactive and harmonious interface between wild and marine lives. It also depicts the palm tree height and its sense of giving, recalling of Arab mightiest swords, the sense of dignity and safe haven.
