Trademark Registration in Turkey

It is obligatory to register a trademark with the TPE (Turkish Patent Institute) to obtain proprietary right of trademarks and logos distinguishing services and goods from competitors.

Registration of your trademark out of Turkey does not provide legal protection in Turkey.

Register your trademark in order to avoid to be in the status of an imitator when you use your trademark in Turkey.

Goods and services have been divided into 45 main classes in the TPE and it is primarily required to properly determine the class of registration to provide full and proper legal protection.

It is searched if the trademark is suitable for registration (Trademark Search Report) after the class determination.

Trademark registration lasts approximately 1 year and the trademark procedures must be completely carried out in the TPE in this process.

There must not be a mistake and delay must in the correspondence with the TPE; otherwise the trademark application is rejected.
