We present the data release 14 Quasar catalog (DR14Q) from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV). This catalog includes all SDSS-IV/eBOSS objects that were spectroscopically targeted as quasar candidates and that are confirmed as quasars via a new automated procedure combined with a partial visual inspection of spectra, have luminosities M-i [z = 2] < -20.5 (in a ACDM cosmology with H-0 = 70 km s(-1) Mpc(-1), Omega(M) = 0.3, and Omega(A) = 0.7), and either display at least one emission line with a full width at half maximum larger than 500 km s(-1) or, if not, have interesting/complex absorption features. The catalog also includes previously spectroscopically-confirmed quasars from SDSS-I, II, and III. The catalog contains 526 356 quasars (144 046 are new discoveries since the beginning of SDSS-IV) detected over 9376 deg(2) (2044 deg(2) having new spectroscopic data available) with robust identification and redshift measured by a combination of principal component eigenspectra. The catalog is estimated to have about 0.5% contamination. Redshifts are provided for the Mg 11 emission line. The catalog identifies 21 877 broad absorption line quasars and lists their characteristics. For each object, the catalog presents five-band (u, g, r, i, z) CCD-based photometry with typical accuracy of 0.03 mag. The catalog also contains X-ray, ultraviolet, near-infrared, and radio emission properties of the quasars, when available, from other large-area surveys. The calibrated digital spectra, covering the wavelength region 3610-10 140 A at a spectral resolution in the range 1300 < R < 2500, can be retrieved from the SDSS Science Archiver Server. ; OCEVU Labex by the "Investissements d'Avenir" French government [ANR-11-LABX-0060]; A*MIDEX project by the "Investissements d'Avenir" French government [ANR-11-IDEX-0001-02]; Agence Nationale de la Recherche [ANR-16-CE31-0021]; Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship; National Science Foundation [1515404, 1616168]; Alfred P.
