Trademark Application

Due to the Law No.556  related with the Protection of the Trademarks; once a trademark is applied , it is forwarded to examination for 3-5 months time.

If there is not any grounds of  refusal , the application is published on the monthly  Trademarks Bulletin for 3 months.

The 3 months publication period is also opposition term for 3rd parties .

If there is not any opposition at the end of the publication period , the registration decision is issued and the registartion certificate has been prepared.
