intellectual property, innovation and patent activities. This is in accordance with global best
practices and in line with the objectives of the “We the UAE 2031” vision to establish the

UAE as a global hub for the new economy and strengthen its position among the top 15

countries in the Global Innovation Index,” said the minister.

Experts said the UAE’s commitment to upholding international treaties and agreements

provides additional reinforcement to its trademark registration system. Through its

commitment to agreements such as the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial
Property and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights, the

UAE streamlines international trademark registration and enforcement, they said.

rights and combat infringement. These mechanisms encompass civil remedies like

damages, injunctions, and seizure of infringing goods, in addition to criminal penalties for
trademark counterfeiting and piracy.
