SANA’A - Abu-Ghazaleh Intellectual Property (AGIP) would like to inform its clients that due to the ongoing unrest in Yemen, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, including the Yemen Trademark Office, have suspended operations.

According to an official source at the Ministry, all trademark applications will be accepted once the Office resumes its activities.

However, AGIP Office in Yemen is still operational and receives clients’ communications, instructions, applications to guarantee immediate filing and response in due time.

Yet for security purposes, the working hours at AGIP Yemen Office have been reduced and work ends at 3 pm, local time in Yemen.

We will continue to monitor the situation closely and advise our clients immediately once we are informed of any change.
