Trademark Renewal

Trademark has to be renewed every 10 years. If you do not get the renewal done, the registration may be cancelled, the trademark may be allotted to others or you may have to pay a fine.

Trademark Registration Act, 1999: Any word, design, color etc. which establishes the identity of a company or its product is called a trademark. In simple language, the unique identity of a business is called a trademark. It is important to get your trademark registered (Trademark Registration Process) so that your trademark is not copied or tampered with.

Any trademark is registered only for 10 years. If you want to keep the same trademark even after 10 years or want to make some changes in it, then apply for renewal just six months before the completion of 10 years.

If you apply for renewal of trademark registration after 10 years have passed, your trademark will be renewed if available, but you will have to pay a penalty along with the renewal fee.
