Overview

Your Brand Is Worth Protecting

Your business name and logo are what customers recognise. Without a registered trademark, it is difficult to stop another business from using a similar name in your market. In Pakistan, trademarks are registered with the Intellectual Property Organization of Pakistan (IPO Pakistan) under the Trade Marks Ordinance, 2001.

We search existing marks to assess the risk of conflict, choose the correct class for your goods or services, file the application and track it through examination and publication until registration. If an objection or opposition is raised, we advise you on your response.

Good to Know

What to Expect

Registration takes time

The process includes examination, publication and an opposition period, so it usually takes many months. Filing early establishes your date of priority.

Classes matter

Trademarks are registered for specific classes of goods or services. Choosing the wrong class can leave your actual business unprotected.

Registration must be renewed

A registered trademark is valid for a fixed period and must be renewed on time to stay protected.
