The short answer for Al Wakrah

Roughly 299,000 people live in Al Wakrah, one of Qatar's 8 municipalities. Qatar's duty comes from Law No. 2 of 2004, with WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the standard attached to it, and it is national rather than municipal.

The split that matters is sector rather than place. Government is mandatory and private business is voluntary, per our source, and a municipality procuring a service can make it a contract condition either way.

So here is what we do about it. We work your Al Wakrah site against all 55 WCAG 2.2 A and AA rules by hand, then a professional blind screen-reader user runs your real journeys while we record where they stop. WCAG 2.2 contains everything the standard above asks for, so one audit answers it with room to spare. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it.

Inside an audit for a site in Al Wakrah

Start with the honest part. The audit is the same in Al Wakrah as it is anywhere, because WCAG does not change at a border. What changes is which law is watching and what it costs to fail, and the section above settles that.

The work itself runs in three passes. A machine finds the failures a machine can prove. A human works every one of the 55 A and AA rules by hand. Then a professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, the way your customers would. Every finding arrives with its screenshot and the fix that closes it, drawn from our free library of 432 guides.

None of the reference sits behind a form, either. Every number below counts pages you can go and read right now, free, whether you ever buy an audit or not.

The honest limit

And an audit is evidence, not a legal opinion. We tell you what fails, who it stops, and what closes it. Whether that satisfies a regulator or a court in Al Wakrah is a question for your lawyer, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise.

Straight answers for Al Wakrah

My site is in Al Wakrah. Does that change what you test?

No. WCAG is the same standard everywhere, so the testing is identical wherever you are. What changes is which law is watching and what failing it costs, and that is what the law section on this page settles.

What law am I actually answering to in Al Wakrah?

Qatar Law No. 2 is the one that reach Al Wakrah first, and each has its own page here covering what it asks for, who it lands on, and how it gets enforced. Sell into more than one market and more than one of them can reach you at the same time.

Should I be publishing an accessibility statement here?

No law that reaches Al Wakrah names one in our library, so nothing forces you to publish a statement. You can still publish one anyway, and our free generator will write it from what the audit found.

What am I paying, and what turnaround do I get?

A Rapid Audit is $499 for 10 pages, with the report in 5 business days. A Standard Audit is $1,499 for 25 pages in 10 business days. Once your team has fixed things, the re-audit is half price within 3 months.

Who does the human half of the testing?

Yes, on every audit. A professional blind screen-reader user opens your real journeys and tries to finish them, and we write down where they stop. That is the pass no scanner can run.
