MUSCAT – The number of applications made for the registration and documentation of trademarks in the Sultanate of Oman, under the international trademark system, grew by 11 percent in 2023 to 13,043 as against 11,742 in 2022, according to the national Intellectual Property (IP) office in Oman.

Ghalib Mohammed Al Saidi, an intellectual property researcher at the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Investment Promotion, said that the past two years saw a rise of 10 to 14 percent in requests for trademark registration and documentation.


In the first half of this year (2024), a total of 6,109 trademarks were registered, while the number of patents stood at 428, he explained.

“Increased demand for such procedures reflects the keenness of trademark owners to document their trademarks in the markets to lend support to commercial competition and combat fraud and manipulation”, said Ghalib Al Saidi, noting that the related applications are submitted through the “Oman Business” platform.
