Libya back in the TM grant business

The May 2010 release of the AGIP Bulletin, brings news that the Libyan Corporate and Commercial Registrations Directorate, which is affiliated to the General People's Committee for Industry, Economy and Commerce, has now issued a registration certificate for a trade mark in the country for the first time in 30 years. Apparently the Libyan Trade Mark Office started to receive applications for trade mark registration applications again in 2002, since which time more than 20,000 have been received.
