Trademark registration is the best way to get it insured. Due to this, the trademark becomes your property, and the law excluds its usage by another person. Also, the law punishes any person who uses your trademark. In case of international registration of trademarks operates the Madrid system which allows to protect the trademark in about 120 countries, as well as in Armenia.
It also gives you access to the worldwide platform of trademarks, extend the validity period and geographical coverage.
Who can use the Madrid system?
The Madrid system is available to anyone who has personal or business relationships with any of the member countries of this system. This means that you need to have a business or permanent residence in one of the 120 member countries of the Madrid system.
Now let’s find out what we need to register our trademark with this system.
For registration, we need to submit an application. This should be done by the trademark holder, personally or by the representative. In case of a request for registration by the representative, a power of attorney should also be submitted.
What to do?
The first step is to submit an application to the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
The next step is to complete the international registration form in French or English.
Then, it is necessary to submit a receipt of state fee payment of 50,000 drams in accordance with the law.
There is an automated system for calculating the price that you can find at the WIPO website at the following link.
