The Commercial Bank of Qatar uses 202 x 93 mm, the most common cheque size across the Gulf. Among Qatari banks it is the outlier for being ordinary: QNB and HSBC Qatar run 175 x 80, Doha Bank 192 x 90.

The one Qatari cheque whose margins you can reuse
If you already print at 202 x 93 for another bank — Emirates NBD, NBK, Bank Dhofar, Al Rajhi or any Indian bank — your printer is already feeding this paper size correctly. The margin values should carry across unchanged.
The layout still has to be the Commercial Bank of Qatar one. Same paper, different field map.
