The General Department for Intellectual Property Protection under the Ministry of Industry and Trade in Sana'a is responsible for managing and protecting intellectual property rights in Yemen. This includes the registration and protection of trademarks, patents, and industrial designs. The department has recently shifted some trademark procedures to an online electronic form, including the publication of the Official Gazette, oppositions, recordals of assignment, and recordals of change of name and address. These changes took place in early October 2024.
