Supply Chain & Sourcing Relationships

• No public evidence identified of a Qatar Airways Group, Qatar Aircraft Catering Company, Qatar Duty Free, Qatar Distribution Company, or Qatar Airways Cargo contract with Mehadrin, Hadiklaim, Galilee Export, Agrexco successors, or another named Israeli agricultural exporter.^{1, 2, 3}

• Qatar Airways announced a 12 February 2024 Business Management Agreement with Swiss-headquartered gategroup covering passenger dining, sourcing and procurement, menu development, and a Doha-based culinary team; the announcement does not identify Israeli suppliers, Israel-origin ingredients, settlement-origin products, or territorial sourcing rights.⁴

• Qatar Airways Group reported a two-year arrangement with Qatari Agricultural Development Company for locally grown fruit, vegetables, and herbs supplied to Qatar Aircraft Catering Company for Doha departures and lounges; the disclosed arrangement does not identify Israeli supply.¹

• Qatar Airways’ published Group materials identify Qatar Aircraft Catering Company as a catering entity, and Qatar Airways stated that it supplies Qatar Airways, other airlines, Hamad International Airport lounges, and Amiri/VIP flights from Doha; no public evidence identified that it or another Group entity is an importer of record for Israeli-origin goods or operates an Israeli-domiciled import subsidiary, joint venture, or dedicated Israeli import entity.^{1, 5}

• Qatar Customs lists “Qatar Airways” in its Green List customs-facilitation programme, but the listing does not identify goods, origin countries, importer-of-record transactions, or Israel-related imports.⁶

• The current supplier-registration materials state that Qatar Airways’ Procurement Department invites suppliers to RFIs and RFQs, while access to its iSupplier system is for existing suppliers and participation is invitation-based; a catering-RFQ manual describes tenders circulated to shortlisted suppliers.^{7, 8, 9}

• These procurement sources do not publish awarded suppliers or product-origin data, and Qatar Airways does not publish a comprehensive supplier list, cargo-waybill dataset, catering-origin register, import declarations, or country-by-country procurement disclosure; indirect carriage or purchase of Israeli-origin goods therefore cannot be excluded from public evidence alone.^{2, 3, 7, 8, 9}

• No public evidence identified of recurring December–April procurement from Israeli suppliers, or of Israeli-origin produce supplied through distributors, resellers, third parties, or white-label arrangements.^{2, 3, 7, 8, 9}

Product Origin, Labeling & Regulatory Compliance

• No public evidence identified in the reviewed Qatar Airways procurement material, Qatari customs material, and supplied NGO-report library of Group retail, catering, cargo, or distribution activity involving products confirmed or alleged to originate in West Bank settlements, East Jerusalem settlements, the Jordan Valley, or the Golan Heights.^{2, 3, 6, 10}

Investment, Capital & Financial Exposure

• No public evidence identified of a Qatar Airways Group direct investment, acquisition, factory, logistics hub, data centre, real-estate holding, research-and-development facility, accelerator, or technology partnership in Israel or the occupied territories.^{1, 11, 12, 13, 14}

• Qatar Airways Investments (UK) Ltd is a wholly owned UK subsidiary of Qatar Airways Group Q.C.S.C. that undertakes certain investment activities on behalf of Qatar Airways; Qatar Airways stated that it acquired a 10% interest in LATAM Airlines Group through that subsidiary in 2016.^{13, 15}

• Qatar Airways’ UK tax strategy identifies Dhiafatina Holdings Limited, Edinburgh Park Hotel Limited, and Qatar Airways Investments (UK) Ltd as UK entities; the reviewed records do not identify an Israeli operating company owned or controlled by Qatar Airways Group.^{16, 13, 14, 17}

• ICAO identifies Qatar Airways as a full-service airline, and the reviewed materials do not publicly evidence that it underwrites Israeli sovereign debt, Israel Bonds, insurance, lending, trade-finance facilities, or disclosed portfolio holdings in Israeli-domiciled companies, Israeli sovereign bonds, OHCHR-listed companies, or Israeli defence companies.^{18, 1, 11}

• The reviewed Ben Gurion flight-board page did not list current scheduled Qatar Airways arrivals or departures; because the site identifies itself as unofficial, this is an operational indication rather than an Israeli aviation-regulatory determination.²²

• No reviewed primary corporate or regulatory source identifies a current Qatar Airways scheduled passenger or cargo route to Israel.^{11, 22}

• FIFA’s 2022 World Cup travel announcement stated that temporary Tel Aviv–Doha charter flights would be operated by an airline with existing landing rights in Qatar, but it did not identify Qatar Airways as the operator.²³

• The November 2023 delegation flight evidences limited physical presence by a Group subsidiary aircraft at Ben Gurion, but the reviewed reporting does not establish an ongoing route, Israeli commercial base, procurement relationship, or settlement activity.²⁴

• The 2026 Israel-resident loyalty offer is activity after 19 July 2024 and after November 2024, but it is not evidence of settlement activity or an Israeli physical or operational base; no reviewed source identifies post-19 July 2024 or post-November 2024 Qatar Airways investment, supply-chain, settlement, or scheduled-route activity in Israel or the occupied territories.^{1, 11, 2, 3, 25}
