State visit from Qatar. May 17-18, 2022.
His Highness the Emir of the State of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani will make a state visit to Spain from May 17 to 18.
The Emir of Qatar and his wife will be received by Their Majesties the King and Queen, who will offer a Gala Dinner in their honor.
During his stay in Spain, in addition to holding a meeting with HM the King, he will meet with the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez and will pay a visit to the Senate, in which the Presidents of the Congress and the Senate, Meritxell Batet and Ander Gil, will award to him the respective Congressional and Senate Medals. He will visit the Madrid City Hall, where the Mayor of the city, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, will present him with the Golden Key of the City of Madrid.
With this visit to the highest level, the Kingdom of Spain and the State of Qatar raise the bilateral relationship to a strategic level, with the signing of Agreements and Memoranda of Understanding in various areas of collaboration, such as economics, investment, education, judicial, health and scientific, among others.

I think this is the first incoming royal state visit to Spain for King Felipe and Queen Letizia?

Apart from the central royal cost of arms, I cannot identify the other shields. What are they?
