The Prime Minister confirmed that negotiations are underway to secure doses, which would be used on non-vaccinated fans who travel to the nation.

Reports also say that Qatar could insist that all players at the 2022 FIFA World Cup are fully vaccinated. Alternatively, unvaccinated players may be required to test every three days.

The main goal is to protect the public health of citizens and residents and to protect the fans participating in the tournament, according to the Prime Minister.

It is now possible to submit a simply signed PoA and other documents (if required) without legalisation at the time of filing so that the Trademark Office (TMO) can process the application or request. The TMO can also issue a certificate or decision, but will not send the original certificate until the legalisation requirement has been fulfilled.

The above affects new filings, oppositions, renewals, and recordals.

This comes with a bundle of other measurements that the government is taking to mitigate the situation, one of which, is the temporary closure of businesses, government departments, and private sector, and total lockdown of the country for 14 days.

Accordingly, and to ensure the safety of our staff, our head office in Amman, Jordan is closed during this period, and we have activated our Disaster Recovery Protocol; one of its measures is to facilitate the remote and online working of our employees from home. Our infrastructure offers cloud access to all required data, files, records, and emails that an employee needs to continue working as normal. Our professionals are available to reply to your inquiries and follow up with pending files and deadlines as always with enough training to adapt to this new situation.

Of course, there will be some limitations and challenges during this period, but we believe that with adequate preparations having been made we will be able to overcome this crisis together.
