Registration of trademark in Turkmenistan

Law&Trust Company is engaged in registration of trademarks in Turkmenistan. Registration of trademark can be ordered by individual or company owner from any country in the world. Registration is carried out according to the national procedure, since the country is not included in the list of world economic unions.

When submitting an application it is necessary to indicate the type of activity, and the process of registering goods is similar to the European one, so all products are divided into groups, the application is sent immediately for the whole category without dividing it into separate types of products.

The above approach simplifies collection of the documentation package. In addition to data on the type of entrepreneurial activity and the types of goods or services, it is necessary to provide personal information and detailed description of the company.

The package of official documents most often include the following:

1. Passport of the applicant, beneficial owners and directors of the organization.
2. For citizens whose identification documents do not have residence address, it is necessary to have address certificate or utility bills for the last 3-4 months.
3. The company's charter and extracts from the protocols.
4. Confirmation of financial status: for individuals - certificate from the place of work, for legal entities - data from the accounting department regarding the level of turnover, as well as extract from the bank account for the availability of certain amount of funds.

Trademarks in Turkmenistan are verified for similarities with other local logos. Legislation on the protection of intellectual rights ensures trademark with legal defense for 10 years after its issuance. The term for consideration of the client's application is about one year, but there may be insignificant delays due to the presence of queues. Several stages should be undergone from the moment of applying to us by the applicant up to sending the package of official documents to representatives of foreign jurisdiction.
