Legal Advice in the Trademark Opposition Procedure in Slovakia

Our law firm offers comprehensive support in the trademark opposition process against registrations in Slovakia. If you believe your trademark rights are affected by a registered trademark, you have the option to file an opposition to protect your interests.

Deadlines for Filing an Opposition

The opposition must be submitted within 3 months of the trademark's publication to the relevant Slovak Patent Office (Úrad priemyselného vlastníctva Slovenskej republiky). Adhering to this deadline is crucial to safeguard your claims.

Common Grounds for Opposition

The most common grounds for an opposition include:

Likelihood of Confusion: If the new mark is similar to your existing mark and could lead to consumer confusion.
Prior Use: If you have used your mark before the registration of the new mark, you can assert your prior use.
Lack of Distinctiveness: Marks that are not clearly distinguishable may be classified as unprotectable.

Duration of the Procedure

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