Community Trade Mark (CTM) Application Print Friendly Version

The documents/information/instructions required by us to prepare a Community Trade Mark Application are as follows:

  • Full details of the applicant's name, address and nationality.

  • For incorporated bodies, the county or state of incorporation.

  • Details of the trade mark including representations (preferably in triplicate) if it is a device mark

  • The specification of goods and/or services to be covered. Community applications may be multi-class.

  • Details of any priority claim, which can be made on filing or within 2 months from the filing date of the application and a certified copy of the priority application with a verified English translation thereof, must be filed within 3 months from the making of the priority claim.

  • Details of any seniority to be claimed from existing registrations in member states of the European Union. The seniority claim can be made on filing, or within 2 months of filing or post registration. Certified copies of the earlier national registrations must be provided to the Community Trade Mark Office within 3 months from the date of making the seniority claim (the filing date if seniority is claimed upon filing).

For a Community Trade Mark application which claims priority from an earlier application previously filed in a Paris convention country, the application must be filed within 6 months of the priority application.
