What is Trademark Renewal?
In India, trademark registrations are only valid for 10 years and can be renewed perpetually, but internationally it can vary by jurisdiction. During the six-month period prior to the expiration date, it can be renewed. It is the trademark registrar’s office’s policy to allow 6 months for trademark owners to renew their trademarks and reclaim their rights.
Trademark registrars announce and withdraw trademarks if people do not renew them.
The owner of the trademark receives a reminder notice for renewal before the trademark is withdrawn from the journal.
Trademark Restoration: Even though the owner still doesn’t apply for the renewal or fails to renew the trademark it can be done within six months of the expiring trademark.
Advantages of Trademark Renewal
- Legal Protection: Trademark Renewal is responsible for not losing your right to your trademark and you can take legal action against unauthorised use of your trademark imitation.
- Brand Recognition: Brand renewal preserves and projects your brand identity and also helps the brand to get recognized in the market.
- Business Growth: Keeping the trademark of the brand is quite valuable in order to grow the business because big companies generate huge profits through royalty and licensing their brand.
