Trademark and Patent Services in Turkey

Opening a brand or patent in Turkey is a process that may seem complicated at first glance. As a foreign individual or company, it’s normal to feel uncertain about legal processes in a different country. However, it is crucial to know that with correct guidance, this process can be handled smoothly.

To register a brand or patent, you must first understand the scope of your brand or patent and which business activities it will cover.

In Turkey, brand and patent registration can be done both on a personal and corporate basis. If you are a foreigner, you must have a residence permit or work permit to carry out this process.

The process of registering a brand in Turkey is managed by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office. Each brand or patent application is examined in detail by the Office, and if there are no problems, the brand is registered after a certain period. As for the time it takes to get a brand registered, it usually takes 5-6 months from the initial application to completion. However, this period may change depending on the office’s workload and the specifics of the application.

Moreover, the cost of brand and patent registration can vary depending on how many business areas you want your brand to be protected in. For example, a brand that will be protected in one area will cost less than a brand that will be protected in multiple areas. In addition, it is important to remember that the brand name and logo are both protected when you register a brand.

Furthermore, registering your brand in Turkey provides you with legal protection against unauthorized use by others. If another person or company tries to use your registered brand, you can take legal action against them. Therefore, brand registration is a critical step for those who want to protect their investments and grow their business.

If you want to register your brand internationally, there are also certain procedures and costs you need to consider.

International brand registration provides protection in the countries that are part of the Madrid Protocol, including Turkey.

The registration process, in this case, is a bit more complicated and can take longer. The costs also differ depending on the countries you want to register in.
