Trademark Registration
Introduction
Trademark registration plays a crucial role in safeguarding your business identity and intellectual property within the Nepalese legal framework. At Miracles Law Group, we specialize in handling trademark registration under Nepal’s legal system.
What is Trademark Registration in Nepal?
A trademark, according to Nepalese law, is any word, symbol, or combination thereof used to distinguish goods or services. Here’s how the registration process works:
Application Submission: Submit an application to the Department of Industry (DoI) in the prescribed format. Include:
- Copy of your business registration or license related to the product or service using the trademark.
- Four copies of the trademark model.
- Authorization letter if someone acts on your behalf.
- For foreigners, a certified copy of any foreign registration certificate and a local address for service.
- Receipt of the application fee.
Preliminary Examination: The DoI examines your application for registrability.
Publication: If approved, your trademark is published in the Industrial Property Bulletin (IP Bulletin).
Registration: Upon successful examination, the DoI registers your trademark and issues a certificate. You’ll pay the registration fee as prescribed.
