Qatar’s Ministry Of Commerce And Industry Launches Single Window For Advertising Licenses

The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (“MoCI”) recently announced the launch of a new single window service platform to issue advertising licenses. The new service is designed to increase the speed with which advertising licenses are issued, and to encourage investment and trade in Qatar. The new service allows companies and investors to obtain temporary, annual, or permanent licenses to advertise on billboards, buildings, cars, or other locations. The licenses should be issued within a three-day period.

The service is another in the MoCI’s efforts to develop commercial business and to unify its procedures for citizens and investors. The single window website may be found here: www.sw.gov.qa
