An Overview

Trademark Renewal

Trademarks are valid for ten years and can be extended indefinitely. The Registrar has given you a six-month timeframe to do so, starting six months before the expiration date. And if you forget, as even major corporations are prone to, you can receive a note to your registered address prior to the expiration date. If you do not file for renewal, the registrar will publish notice of its intent to do so.

Benefits

Legal Representation
You can quickly determine your rights in court if you think your registered trademark has been infringed. In industries where infringement is prevalent, trademark registration is required.
Possibility for Business
If the brand succeeds, a trademark is an intangible commodity that can be very beneficial. Consider the brands Tide, Nike, and McDonald’s. Via licence arrangements or even the sale of ownership to interested parties, businesses will raise a lot of money in royalties.
Individuality
Customers should be able to associate your goods or services with your name. The first move in ensuring this is to register your trademark. The statute will then prohibit the registration of any alternative words or slogans.

How to Renew a Trademar?

There are two kinds of renewal:

  • The registered trademark’s sign or signature is altered or modified. 
  • No trademark changes were made during the application process.

The procedure is as follows-

  • The TM-R form is used to submit a renewal document.
  • Either the trademark’s registered owner or an individual approved by him may file the application.
  • A trademark registration patent extends the term of the trademark for another ten years.
  • It is important to review the status of your Trademark Renewal application on a regular basis after filing it before it is processed by the registrar.
  • The Trademark Journal is an official publication of the Trademark Registry that regulates the status of trademark applications, whether they are approved or rejected. If it is authorised, it is published in the Trademark Journal. As a result, the renewal process can begin 3 to 6 months before the trademark expires.
