Trademark Definition and Importance

A trademark is any sign that distinguishes a business’s goods and services from others. It is vital in commercial life, reflecting a business’s identity like a fingerprint. It serves as a commercial source identifier to consumers, often symbolizing quality or acting as a promotional tool.

Words, names, letters, numbers, shapes, sounds, colors, their combinations, and even the form or packaging of goods can be registered as trademarks.

 

Trademark Protection Period

A registered trademark is protected for 10 years from the application date. It can be renewed indefinitely in 10-year periods. However, protection ends if the trademark is not renewed after 10 years, the owner relinquishes it, or if it is invalidated or canceled by a court.

Registered trademarks can be transferred to others, inherited, licensed for use, pledged, or used as collateral.

 

How It Works

In Turkey, trademark registrations are conducted by TÜRKPATENT (Turkish Patent and Trademark Office). The application fees and procedures are often subject to changes. When you work with our expert team to register your trademark, we first check whether your trademark is available for application, and determine the class of the trademark, depending on your business type. We then collect the necessary documents and information from you and apply with your files. On the whole, the process of registration of the trademark from filing up to receipt of the trademark certificate takes about 6-8 months, if no Office Action is issued.

 

FAQs

 

How is the trademark registration application prepared and submitted?

To file a trademark application, we require:
