In order to use trademarks, legal protection must be ensured through registration. Late registration can result in defeat in the fight against unfair competition.

Trademark registration is the process of obtaining a certificate confirming the exclusive use of a distinctive element or elements for your company's goods or services.

After receiving the registration certificate, the trademark owner becomes the exclusive holder of the registered object and can use it at their discretion: use it in operation, refuse to use it, sell it, transfer it to someone else, or allow or prohibit its use.

The registration certificate obtained in Azerbaijan provides legal protection for trademarks only within the territory of Azerbaijan. To protect your trademark rights in other countries, you need to apply to each country of interest or use the international registration procedure.

The trademark registration certificate is valid for 10 years and can be renewed for another 10 years.

Trademark registration is not an easy procedure, and what may seem simple at first glance can become complicated and require the involvement of a specialist. Only a patent attorney with the appropriate knowledge, legal and specialized education, and years of experience in intellectual property can provide professional legal assistance at all stages: registration, maintenance, rights enforcement, infringement handling, and rights transfer.
