As your business grows, as does your audience. It is therefore important that your trade mark protection grows with you.
Trade marks are territorial and only provide protection in the country or region in which they are registered. It is therefore important that you seek to register your brand in all the countries you are actively trading in.
One country that has grown in popularity significantly is the UAE – in fact the whole of the Middle East.
Dubai is arguably one of the fastest growing cities in terms of business and therefore this has opened up many opportunities for businesses from other countries to expand.
When it comes to filing a trade mark on the other side of the world it can be hard to know where to start- the simple answer is start with the Trademarkroom.
As a team of Global brand experts, the Trademarkroom team is well versed in the process of filing a trade mark in the UAE.
While the country is one of the most expensive to file in, the registration can be worth the investment and will enable you to prevent anyone else from taking advantage of your brand.
Alongside the UAE, the following countries, among others, are also be utilised for trade mark protection:
- Saudi Arabia
- Qatar
- Kuwait
- Bahrain
- Oman
When filing in the Middle East, we do require a signed Power of Attorney which allows a local agent to file on your behalf. This Power of attorney needs to be notarised and legalised with the Embassy. We can walk you through this process, making it as streamlined as possible.
To file a trade mark application in the Middle East, expertise and attention to detail is needed – that is what the Trademarkroom can offer you.
