Trademark Management in Egypt: Protecting Your Intellectual Property
Trademark management in Egypt is essential for businesses seeking to protect their brands and maintain exclusive rights in one of North Africa’s most dynamic economies. Egypt operates a national trademark registration system under Law No. 82 of 2002, and is a member of the Paris Convention and the TRIPS Agreement. Trademark protection in Egypt is valid for ten years and can be renewed indefinitely for further ten-year periods. Effective trademark management ensures your brand is safeguarded against infringement, unauthorized use, and legal complications.
