FAQ
What is trademark renewal?
Trademark renewal is the process of extending the legal protection of your registered trademark beyond its initial 10-year validity period. Renewing your trademark keeps your exclusive rights active and prevents it from being removed from the register.
When should I renew my trademark?
You should apply for renewal at least 6 months before the trademark’s expiration date. There is also a grace period of 6 months after expiry, during which you can still renew with an additional late fee.
What happens if I don’t renew my trademark on time?
If you fail to renew your trademark before the deadline or within the grace period, your trademark may be removed from the trademark register. Once removed, you risk losing legal rights to the brand and it becomes open for registration by others.
