What you need to know about registering a trademark
State registration of a trademark in Rospatent
is the only way to secure exclusive rights to your trademark in Russia and any country in the world.
International Trademark Registration
is a registration system where one application for protection of a trademark can be filed at once in 116 countries. Such a system simplifies registration, but does not protect the trademark at once all over the world.
The term of registration of a trademark
depends on the terms established by Rospatent, as well as the purity of the sign. Rospatent, according to the regulations, can register up to 18.5 months. Each request and notification of FIPS about errors in documents or obstacles to registration
extends the process for 2-6 months.
The success of self-registration of trademarks
is no more than 15%. The most common reasons for refusal: the presence of opposing signs and incorrect answers to FIPS notices.
- You can use the trademark after you have verified and excluded the possibility of violating the rights of third parties. The owner of the mark can start his promotion, sell the goods marked with a sign.
- However, it is possible to fully protect your brand only after the trademark is registered. Only after receiving the registration number of the sign, the rightholder can transfer the rights to the trademark: conclude franchise agreements, license agreements, enter a trademark in the customs register, bring the perpetrators to justice.
