The Trademark Registration Process
Registering a trademark involves several distinct stages: an initial search of existing trademarks, submission of the application, examination by the Trademarks Office, publication of the application in the Trademarks Journal, a defined period during which opposition may be filed, and finally, allowance and registration where no opposition arises. In practical terms, the process typically follows these steps:
- Completing the trademark application form
- Conducting a thorough trademark search
- Selecting the appropriate trademark class for your goods or services
- Filing the trademark application
- Completing trademark registration
How Long Does Trademark Registration Take?
Trademark registration is a lengthy process, and in a straightforward case, free from objections or oppositions, it typically takes around 18 to 24 months to secure registration. That said, once the application is filed, an application number is usually issued within one to two days, giving you immediate proof of filing while the formal examination process continues.
