The trademark will be published in the Trademark Journal issued by the Ministry and must also be published in two local newspapers. After the publication, there is a period of 30 days during which written objections to registration may be filed to the Trademark Office by third parties. If no objections are received within the initial 30 days, the Trademark Office approves the registration, and the registration certificate will be issued.
A registration is valid for 10 years from the date the application was filed and can be renewed indefinitely for consecutive 10-year periods. Under current laws, there is no requirement to ‘prove use’ of the registration in order to renew it.
A renewal application must be filed during the last year of expiry. For renewal there is a non–extendable grace period of three months from the date of expiry of the trademark.

Trademark registration can be an extensive and detailed procedure and it is recommended to find the services of an attorney who specializes in this area of practice.
