- Opposition Period: The official period for filing third-party oppositions against an international mark in Qatar is 60 days from its local publication date.
Parties with existing or pending rights in Qatar are advised to begin monitoring the new official bulletin to identify any conflicting international marks and file oppositions within the 60-day deadline to protect their interests.
This move marks a significant step in the implementation of the Madrid Protocol in Qatar and reinforces the country's commitment to aligning its intellectual property framework with international practices.
