Expert Legal Support in the Trademark Opposition Procedure for Registrations in Qatar

Our law firm offers competent legal support in the trademark opposition process against registrations in Qatar. If you believe your trademark rights are infringed by the registration of a new trademark, you have the option to file an opposition to protect your rights.

Deadlines for Filing an Opposition

The opposition must be submitted within 30 days of the trademark's publication to the relevant Ministry of Commerce and Industry in Qatar. Adhering to this deadline is crucial to effectively assert your claims.

Typical Grounds for Opposition

Common reasons for an opposition include:

Likelihood of Confusion: Similarities between your existing mark and the new mark could confuse consumers.
Prior Use: If you have used your mark before the registration of the new mark, you have the right to point out your prior use.
Insufficient Distinctiveness: Marks that are not clearly distinguishable or are too general may be considered unprotectable.

Procedure and Duration

The entire opposition process can take several months, depending on the complexity of the case and the processing time of the Ministry. We will continuously keep you informed about all significant developments throughout the process.
