FAQs
Q: When should I renew my UK trademark?
A: You should renew your UK trademark every 10 years from the initial filing date. The UK Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO) allows you to renew your trademark up to 6 months before the expiration date. It's advisable to start the renewal process early to ensure timely completion.
Q: What happens if I miss the renewal deadline?
A: If you miss the renewal deadline, there's a 6-month grace period during which you can still renew your trademark. However, you'll need to pay additional late fees. If you don't renew within this grace period, your trademark will be removed from the register, and you'll lose your exclusive rights to the mark.
Q: Are there any changes to the renewal process post-Brexit?
A: Post-Brexit, the renewal process for UK trademarks remains largely unchanged. However, EU trademarks (EUTMs) registered before January 1, 2021, were automatically cloned into UK registrations. These cloned marks now need to be renewed separately in the UK.
