Document required for Trademark Registration in Oman
The documents required for registering a trademark in Oman is as follows:
A power of attorney from the country of origin and notarised by the Omani embassy.
• A copy of the certificate of incorporation of the applicant company or an extract of the entry of the applicant in the commercial register.
a soft copy of the proposed trademark;
• Name and address of the company wishing to register the trademark
• A description of goods and services along with the Nice Classification.
Additionally, Oman ratified the GCC Trademark Law through Royal Decree No. 33/2017, but it only became effective after its publication. Despite this, there are no implementing regulations, and the GCC Trademark Law has not officially replaced the IP Law. In cases where the GCC Trademark Law is unclear, the IP Law will still be considered applicable according to the Royal Decree No. 33/2017. It is advisable to have a clear understanding of both laws when handling trademarks in Oman to avoid any ambiguity.
