Qatar is taking a big step toward modernizing its intellectual property system. The Trademark Office has begun a trial phase introducing:

• E-Gazette – official trademark publications in digital format
• Electronic Certificates – issued for certain registered trademarks

With these changes, hard copies may no longer be standard for every mark, so it’s crucial for brand owners to track how their certificates are issued.

This shift aims to make IP services more efficient, accessible, and environmentally friendly — but it also means businesses should adapt their record-keeping and compliance practices accordingly.
