While it's possible, the process is complex and fraught with risks. A simple error in the application, class selection, or missing a renewal deadline can lead to application rejection, weak protection, or even total loss of your trademark rights. Our expertise mitigates these risks and provides strategic value.

A trademark registration in Singapore is valid for 10 years from the date of application. It can be renewed indefinitely for subsequent 10-year periods.

A trademark search is conducted before you file an application to see if your desired mark is available. Trademark monitoring happens after your mark is registered, to watch for new applications or uses that might infringe on your existing rights.

IPOS provides a 6-month grace period after the expiry date, during which you can still renew by paying additional late fees. If the grace period also lapses, your trademark will be removed from the register and you will lose all protection. The process to restore a lapsed mark is complex, expensive, and not guaranteed.

Absolutely. We specialise in guiding Singapore-based businesses through the Madrid Protocol for international registration, managing the process from start to finish to secure protection in over 130 member countries.
