Abstract: The applicability or terminating condition for the ordinary case of Zeilberger's algorithm was recently obtained by Abramov. For the q-analogue, the question of whether a bivariate q-hypergeometric term has a qZ-pair remains open. Le has found a solution to this problem when the given bivariate q-hypergeometric term is a rational function in certain powers of q. We solve the problem for the general case by giving a characterization of bivariate q-hypergeometric terms for which the q-analogue of Zeilberger's algorithm terminates. Moreover, we give an algorithm to determine whether a bivariate q-hypergeometric term has a qZ-pair.
