Information About our Consulting Services and the Opposition Procedure in Serbia

Our law firm provides comprehensive support in the trademark opposition process against registrations in Serbia. If you believe your trademark rights are infringed by a registered trademark, you have the opportunity to file an opposition to protect your interests.

Deadlines and Procedures for Filing an Opposition

The opposition must be submitted within 3 months of the trademark's publication to the relevant Serbian Patent Office (Zavod za intelektualnu svojinu). It is important to adhere to this deadline to secure your claims.

Possible Grounds for Opposition

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: A mark that is not sufficiently distinctive may be considered 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 informed throughout the entire process.
