Trademark Management in Georgia: Protecting Your Intellectual Property
Georgia is an increasingly attractive market for international businesses, and securing trademark rights is essential for long-term success. Trademark protection in Georgia is governed by the Law of Georgia on Trademarks and administered by the National Intellectual Property Center of Georgia (Sakpatenti). The country follows a first-to-file system, making proactive trademark management crucial for businesses to secure and enforce their rights.
At Liesegang & Partner, we help businesses navigate the trademark system in Georgia, offering full legal and administrative support — from maintaining accurate ownership records to representing clients in trademark oppositions.
