Trademark renewal is the process of extending the validity of a registered trademark beyond its initial registration period, ensuring continued protection and exclusive rights over the trademark.
Trademark renewal should be initiated well in advance of the expiry date of the trademark registration, preferably six months to one year before the expiry to avoid lapses in protection.
The trademark owner or the authorized agent appointed by the owner is responsible for initiating and completing the renewal process with the Trademark Registry.
The procedure involves filing a renewal application with the Trademark Registry, paying the prescribed renewal fees, and submitting any required documents or declarations.
Documents such as the renewal application, proof of current ownership, power of attorney (if filing through an agent), and payment receipts are required for renewal.
