Trademark Registration in Oman - Protect Your Brand Nationwide

Trademark administration in Oman is supervised by the Ministry of Commerce, Industry & Investment Promotion (MOCIIP). Oman follows the GCC Trademark Law and the NICE Classification for goods and services. The Registry operates through an online filing system and maintains a clear, single-stage examination process. All filings, publications, oppositions, and registrations are processed electronically through the MOCIIP portal.

Why Trademark Registration is Important in Oman?

Exclusive Rights: Prevents others from using your mark for similar goods/services, giving you sole control.

Legal Enforcement: Empowers you to sue infringers and stop counterfeiting through Omani courts.

Market Position: Establishes brand identity, builds customer loyalty, and signals reliability.

Asset Creation: Turns your brand into a valuable asset that can be licensed, franchised, or sold.

How the Oman Trademark Registration Works

The Oman trademark registration system follows a structured sequence of reviews, publications, and legal checks. These steps ensure that trademarks meet all statutory requirements and remain protected over time.

1

Filing

The application is submitted through the MOCIIP online portal with the required details, including the trademark representation, applicant information, and the list of goods/services as per the NICE Classification. Oman requires single-class filing and a separate application must be filed for each class. Once filed, the application receives an official filing number.

2

Examination

The Registry conducts a combined formal and substantive examination, reviewing the completeness of details, distinctiveness, compliance with GCC Trademark Law, and potential conflicts with earlier marks. If any issues are identified, an official action is issued to the applicant.

3

Acceptance & Publication

If the application clears examination without objections, the mark is formally accepted and, upon payment of publication fees, the mark gets published in the Oman Official Gazette for public review and potential opposition.

4

Opposition Period

Once published, third parties have a statutory 60-day period to file an opposition. If no opposition is filed, or if any opposition is successfully resolved in favour of the applicant, the application proceeds to the registration stage

5

Registration

After the opposition period ends and following payment of the registration fee, MOCIIP issues the official Trademark Registration Certificate

6

Validity & Renewal

Trademark registration in Oman is valid for 10 years from the filing date and can be renewed indefinitely for successive 10-year period terms by paying the renewal fees within the last year of validity or during a 6-month grace period thereafter with a late fee.
