Trademark Renewal in Bangladesh

Trademark renewal is a crucial process to maintain the protection of your registered trademark. In Bangladesh, trademarks are governed by the Trade Marks Act, 2009, and the renewal process ensures that your trademark remains valid and enforceable.

Renewal Process

1. Application Submission:

   • Submit a renewal application to the Registrar of Trademarks at least six months before the expiration of the trademark registration.
   • Use the prescribed form and include necessary details such as the trademark registration number and applicant information.

2. Fee Payment:

   • Pay the required renewal fee. Ensure that you check the latest fee structure as it may change over time.

3. Examination:

   • The Registrar will examine the application for compliance with legal requirements.

4. Renewal Certificate:

   • If the application is approved, you will receive a renewal certificate, extending the trademark protection for another ten years.

Important Considerations

• Timely Renewal: It's essential to renew your trademark on time to avoid any lapse in protection.
• Grace Period: If you miss the renewal deadline, there may be a grace period during which you can still renew the trademark by paying an additional late fee.
• Continued Use: Ensure that you continue using the trademark in commerce, as non-use may lead to challenges or cancellation.
