The Qatar Ministry of Commerce and Industry has launched a new digital feature aimed at improving government services and simplifying product price registration procedures for companies, suppliers, and retailers operating in the country.
In a statement, the ministry said that the newly introduced bulk product data upload feature has been integrated into the ‘Adding Commodity without a Custom Release’ service.
The initiative is designed to facilitate the registration of previously unlisted products while reducing the administrative burden associated with manual data entry and price recording procedures.
The ministry explained that the feature also provides businesses with a flexible six-month processing period to complete the registration and pricing procedures for goods, allowing companies additional time to comply with regulatory requirements while ensuring smoother operational processes.
According to officials, the service can be accessed through the ministry’s official digital platform on its website by selecting the electronic services section and then navigating to the digital platform services portal.
The ministry noted that the initiative forms part of Qatar’s wider digital transformation strategy focused on enhancing the efficiency of public services, supporting the private sector, and improving the overall business environment in the country.
Authorities stated that the new feature is expected to help companies manage large product inventories more efficiently while accelerating approval and registration procedures.
Officials also stressed that all registered products must comply with applicable laws and regulations, including product safety standards, public morals, and cultural requirements in Qatar.
The ministry urged companies, suppliers, and retailers to take advantage of the six-month grace period and ensure compliance with the updated procedures, describing the move as part of broader efforts to build a more transparent, organized, and investment-friendly commercial ecosystem in the country.
