Frequently Asked Questions about
trademarks
How long does it take to register a trademark?
The complete process usually takes between 6 and 9 months, depending on whether there are oppositions or observations from INAPI.
How long is a trademark valid?
The trademark is initially valid for 10 years from its granting and can be renewed indefinitely for equal periods.
What is the deadline to respond to an opposition?
Once the notification is issued, the deadline to respond to a trademark opposition is 30 days. This period consists of administrative business days, so holidays, Sundays, and Saturdays are not counted.
What is the Nice Classification?
It is an international system that organizes products and services into classes. When registering a trademark, you must choose the appropriate class according to what you offer.
What happens if I don't use my registered trademark?
If you do not use it for 5 continuous years, any third party could request its cancellation due to lack of effective use.
What do I do if a third party is using my trademark?
If a third party is using your trademark, or a confusingly similar one, there are different actions you can take. The industrial property law, the unfair competition law, and even the consumer protection law protect you in these cases.
