Why is it important to register a trademark?
Registering a trademark is a crucial step in protecting your company’s identity and distinguishing yourself from competitors. A registered trademark grants you the exclusive right to use the name or logo in your sector, preventing others from using a similar or identical mark. Additionally, trademark registration is essential for establishing a strong reputation and creating a legal basis for protecting your business against infringements.

How to check the availability of a trademark name?
Before starting the registration process, it is important to ensure that the chosen name or logo is available. In Spain, this can be done through the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office (OEPM). The OEPM provides an online tool that allows you to search for registered marks and avoid legal conflicts or application rejections. It is recommended to conduct a thorough search to guarantee the uniqueness of your trademark and prevent potential disputes.

How much does it cost to register a trademark in Spain?
The cost of registering a trademark in Spain can vary depending on several factors, such as the number of classes of goods or services you wish to protect. The base fee for registering a trademark in one class is approximately 100-200 euros, though this amount may increase if you decide to protect the mark in multiple classes. Additionally, there may be extra costs if you choose to hire a lawyer or intellectual property agent to assist with the process. We will register your trademark for 120 euros. Taxes are paid separately.

How long does it take to register a trademark in Spain?
The trademark registration process in Spain can take from 8 to 12 months, depending on various factors. This includes the time required for the OEPM to review the application, the publication of the mark in the Official Industrial Property Bulletin (BOPI), and the opposition period during which third parties may file objections. If no objections are raised and the application meets all legal requirements, the trademark will be officially registered at the end of this period.

How to register a trademark in Spain?
To register a trademark in Spain, the first step is to conduct a preliminary search to ensure the mark is available. Next, you need to submit an application for registration. The application must include details about the mark, such as the name, logo, and classification of goods or services. After submitting the application and paying the corresponding fees, the OEPM will review it and, if everything is in order, proceed to publish it in the BOPI. If no objections are received within the specified period, the mark will be registered, and you will receive a registration certificate as the owner.
