Trademark Management in Portugal: Protecting Your Intellectual Property
Trademark management in Portugal is governed by a clear and structured legal framework, ensuring that your brand enjoys robust protection across the country. Trademarks are registered with the Portuguese Institute of Industrial Property (INPI), granting exclusive rights to use and enforce your mark throughout Portugal. The process includes application, examination, publication, and a two-month opposition period. Ongoing management—such as updating ownership or contact details, appointing a legal representative, and handling oppositions—is essential for maintaining and defending your trademark rights in Portugal.
