Legal Advice in the Trademark Opposition Procedure in Saudi Arabia

Our law firm offers comprehensive legal support in the opposition process against the registration of trademarks in Saudi Arabia. If you believe your trademark rights are infringed by the registration of a new trademark, you have the option to actively file an opposition to protect your interests.

Deadlines for Filing Oppositions

The opposition must be submitted within 30 days of the trademark's publication to the relevant Saudi Patent Office (Saudi Authority for Intellectual Property). Timely submission is crucial to effectively assert your claims.

Grounds for Opposition

Typical grounds for an opposition include:

  • Likelihood of Confusion: If the new mark is similar to your existing mark and this could lead to confusion among consumers.
  • Prior Use: If you have used your mark before the registration of the new mark, you can assert your prior use.
  • Insufficient Distinctiveness: A mark that is not sufficiently distinctive may be considered unprotectable.

Process and Duration

The entire opposition process can take several months, depending on the complexity of the case and the processing time of the Patent Office. We will keep you informed about all relevant developments throughout the process.
