Thai trademark registration

Establishment of the brand image for brand protection

————

Because of regionality of trademarks, trademarks registered in Other countries might not necessarily gain protection abroad. To protect domestic trademarks in a foreign country requires trademark owners to register their trademarks there.

Notes for Application

1. Thailand is open to registration application of commodity trademarks, service trademarks, certificate trademarks, collective trademarks, associated trademarks, and color trademarks.

2. Thailand does not accept large-scale commodities.

3、There are two ways to apply for the trademark of Thailand. Companies can carefully consider choosing which way to protect the trademark.

①. With the help of MDR, it takes 15 months to have the trademark registered by applying directly to the Department of Intellectual Property.

②. With the help of MDR, it takes at least 21 months to have the trademark registered through the Madrid System of International Registration of Trademarks. Thailand is a member state of the system. By submitting only one set of application instruments, an enterprise can extend the trademark registration protection to multiple parties, making it very easy to seek legal protection for its trademark in multiple regions. The solution can not only save costs, simplify the application procedures, but also beneficial for the enterprise to carry out uniform trademark management.

Classification of trademarks

1. The applicant can be a Thai company, foreigners’ passport and foreign company;

2. Trademark service life: 10 years, renewed per 10 years;

3. Quotation: A logo is corresponding to products under the same category. Every extra category of products will generate extra fees. For example, ice cream, facial mask and toner are three kinds of products and will generate three charges;

4. If the number of products under the same category apply beyond the upper limit, no extra fees will be charged, and the already paid amount covers all products of the whole category; (Thai products can be divided into 45 categories.)

5. Cross-category application: For example, cake and pillow are two products, and the quotation is “application fees for the cake plus application fees for the pillow.” Following that, any new application under the same category is charged by one product.

Notes: There is a huge difference between Thai’s trademark classification and other countries’ trademark application procedures and classification. Hereby, we suggest you not classifying the trademarks on your own.

As to disputes over registering brands containing hot-words as trademarks, if you succeed in registering, it does not mean that none have successfully registered it. However, if others are also applying, you might fail to register it, but the trademark bureau will not give you refund because of it.
