Qatar's business efficiency ranks fifth globally: MoCI
Tribune News Network Doha Mohammed bin Hassan Al-Malki, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, chaired the second quarterly performance review meeting for 2025, in the presence of assistant undersecretaries and departmental directors. The meeting included a comprehensive review of the Ministry's key achievements in the second quarter, and an evaluation of overall performance in line with approved strategic plans. Among the notable accomplishments was the Ministry's winning of first place and the Golden Award in the National Cyber Drill 2024, organised by Qatar National Cyber Security Agency (NCSA) under the theme 'Zero Hour'. The reporting period also witnessed the launch of the national initiative for promoting local production and subsidising the supply of red meat during Eid Al-Adha. In parallel, the Ministry facilitated import procedures by lifting restrictions for specific commercial activities and launched the virtual assistant 'Saif'. The Ministry also launched a public-private partnership project aimed at developing the beaches of West Bay and Al-Safliya Island, and adopted the Unified Economic Coding System (ISIC 4) for economic activities. The meeting also assessed performance indicators across various sectors and administrative units. Indicators from the Industrial Affairs and Business Development Sector showed that the manufacturing sector's contribution to real GDP reached QAR 13.4 billion in the first quarter, an increase of 5.50 percent compared to the same period in 2024. On the international front, the State of Qatar ranked fifth globally in the Business Efficiency Index and, for the first time, joined the top ten in the Global Competitiveness Index by securing ninth place. National products recorded a growth rate of 7.17 percent in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, with 70 new products added in the first half of the year. Additionally, 160 factories obtained local value certificates. In the first quarter of 2025, 228 factories participated in export activities, generating a total export value of QAR 1.39 billion. The second quarter also witnessed the establishment of 2,911 non-Qatari companies, representing an increase of 640 percent compared to the same quarter of 2024. The Ministry is currently reviewing nine public-private partnership projects, three of which were introduced in the second quarter. In the Commerce Affairs Sector, the number of new commercial registrations increased by 103 percent compared to the second quarter of 2024. A total of 5,777 main registrations and 851 branch registrations were issued, while active registrations rose by 15.66 percent. This growth was supported by Ministerial Decision No. (60) of 2024, which reduced fees for services offered by the Ministry, and by the launch of a service enabling company formation by foreign investors from abroad with minimal requirements (a valid passport copy). These initiatives accelerated the fulfillment of target performance levels for new registrations during the quarter.

Meanwhile, the time required to process commercial registration services, reserve trade names, and issue commercial licences for investors was notably reduced. On digital transformation, the Single Window platform was enhanced with five new electronic services in the second quarter, with 33 additional services scheduled for release later this year. The share of digital transactions conducted on the platform increased by 5.38 percent compared to the first quarter of 2025. In the Consumer Affairs Sector, the average number of specialised licences issued rose by 34.32 percent compared to the second quarter of 2024. This growth reflects the Ministry's ongoing efforts to reduce violations by intensifying inspection and awareness campaigns. Performance indicators revealed that 58,180 inspections were carried out in the second quarter, accounting for 62 percent of active commercial licences, and representing a 47 percent increase compared to the first quarter. The meeting also reviewed safety levels of strategic reserves for supply commodities and animal feed.

SJC launches e-payment services for judicial fees
QNA Doha The Supreme Judiciary Council (SJC) has announced the launch of the first package of electronic payment services in partnership with Qatar National Bank (QNB) through an integrated electronic payment gateway aimed at facilitating judicial procedures and enabling parties to pay deposits and judicial fees in a safe, fast, and easy digital manner. By launching the first phase of the Court Secretariat Development Project, the Council aims to provide payment channels that support a number of card types and modern payment features for a number of services, most notably Apple Pay, the most widely used by individuals, in addition to supporting all card types such as Mastercard, Visa, and Himyan cards, among other diverse payment services. This will enable users to pay court fees, execution requests, and deposits through the Courts Portal and the Courts app, as well as through the mobile app, ATMs, and QNB's e-portal, which will be launched in the phase following the initial launch via the Courts Portal. Electronic payment services allow individuals to pay for themselves or for another party using Visa, MasterCard, and AMEX cards, in addition to local NAPS cards, and Himyan cards, and payment services via Apple Pay. The new system also offers smart payment options, such as partial payments in specific cases, and payment via SMS links. It also sends notifications to users upon completion of financial transactions, and provides financial reports to the relevant management. The Supreme Judicial Council affirms that the launch of the first package of e-payment services represents a qualitative step towards achieving prompt justice through digital means and facilitating litigation services. This is in line with Qatar National Vision 2030, which aims to develop digital infrastructure, enhance the efficiency of government services, and facilitate the implementation of judicial rulings with minimal time and effort. Providing diverse payment channels and multiple ways to access them without the need to visit the court is considered a top priority for developing court secretariat and judicial fees systems. It is worth noting that since the implementation of the Enforcement Law in November 2024, the Enforcement Court has witnessed the launch of a large package of electronic services for the Enforcement Court, in accordance with the legal amendments to the procedures for enforcing judgments, and their provision through the Courts Portal and the Courts App. This year witnessed the launch of advanced electronic services for all new enforcement procedures. The Court witnessed a significant improvement in the progress of enforcement operations and contributed significantly to their enhancement.
