The Supreme Judiciary Council (SJC) has launched a website for the Investment and Trade Court, as part of its support for the initiative to develop national justice systems and the digital transformation process to automate the Qatari judicial system.
The website, https://itc.sjc.gov.qa, includes a comprehensive definition of the court, which is the first of its kind in the field of specialised judiciary, and aims to provide an attractive and stable investment environment, in light of the keenness of Qatar to develop its judicial procedures, and modernise its legislative system, especially the investment system, to guarantee the rights of litigants, and expedite the resolution of disputes and their settlement with high efficiency and quality.
The website provides explanation of the court’s jurisdiction, tasks, and responsibilities to resolve disputes related to commercial matters, and other disputes related to intellectual property rights, patents, financial transactions, e-commerce, partnership contracts, bankruptcy, monopoly, practices harmful to national products, and disputes over the investment of non-Qatari capital in economic activities.
