The Qatar eAccessibility Policy (2011) mandates that all digital content and online services provided by public sector organizations must be accessible to people with diverse abilities. This policy aims to ensure that digital platforms are user-friendly for individuals who rely on assistive technologies, like screen readers or voice recognition software. The policy aligns with international standards such as WCAG 2.0 to promote inclusivity in the digital space.

The policy requires that government websites, mobile applications, and digital services meet accessibility standards that comply with WCAG 2.1. Key requirements include providing alternative text for images, ensuring keyboard navigability, maintaining readable contrast ratios, and ensuring that multimedia content is accessible with captions and transcripts. The policy also mandates that websites and apps are compatible with assistive technologies to ensure equal access for users with diverse abilities.

The Qatar eAccessibility Policy (2011) applies to all public sector organizations and government agencies that provide online services. These entities must ensure that their websites and digital content are accessible to everyone, including those with neurodivergent conditions, sensory impairments, or other disabilities. Private organizations providing public services are also encouraged to adopt these standards.
