Trademark registration in Ukraine – price, procedure and terms

Trademark registration in Ukraine is a key step to protect the identity of a product or service on the market. This process is reflected in legislation and regulated by intellectual property authorities. Let's consider the main aspects of trademark registration in Ukraine, in particular the price, procedure and terms.

Registration price

The price of trademark registration in Ukraine may vary depending on several factors, such as the type of applicant (individual or legal entity), the number of classes of goods or services in which the mark is intended to be used, and other additional services that may be requested. In general, the cost of registration can vary from several thousand to several tens of thousands of hryvnias. It is recommended to contact specialized law firms such as the law firm "Prykhodko and Partners" to obtain accurate information about the cost.

Registration procedure

• Preparation of documentation: Before submitting an application for trademark registration, it is necessary to prepare a package of documents, which usually includes an application with the necessary attachments, a sample of the mark, a list of goods or services for which the mark is planned to be used, as well as a document confirming the payment of the appropriate fee.
• Application submission: After preparing the documents, the application is submitted to UKRNOIVI. The application can be submitted both in person and electronically.
• Formal examination: After the application is submitted, it undergoes a formal examination, during which the compliance of the submitted documentation with the requirements of the law is checked.
• Qualification examination: If the application has successfully passed the formal examination, it is submitted to a substantive examination, during which the compliance of the mark with the requirements of uniqueness and absence of conflict with other marks is checked.
• Publication and registration: If all stages of the examination are successfully passed, the application is published, and after that a certificate of trademark registration is issued.

Deadlines

The terms of trademark registration may vary depending on the circumstances of the individual case. In general, it can take from several months to six months or more from the time of filing an application to receiving a trademark registration certificate. However, it is important to note that from the moment of filing the application, the applicant has the opportunity to enjoy some rights related to the future registration of the mark, including the right to disseminate information about the future mark and to exercise patentability rights.
