The Embassy of Qatar at 1 South Audley Street in Mayfair, London is the diplomatic mission of Qatar in the United Kingdom.[1] The embassy is housed in a Grade II listed three storey house designed by the architect Frederick Pepys Cockerell and completed after his death by George Aitchison.[2]

The exterior of the house is richly decorated with a terracotta freize depicting putti.[3]

Qatar also maintains a Cultural and Military Section at 21 Hertford Street, Mayfair and a Health Section at 30 Collingham Gardens, South Kensington.[4]

In 2013 there was a protest outside the embassy against the alleged mistreatment of migrant workers in Qatar.[5]
