Trademark Management in Switzerland: Protecting Your Intellectual Property
Trademark management in Switzerland is governed by a robust and efficient legal system, offering strong protection for brand owners. Trademarks are registered with the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IGE/IPI), granting exclusive rights to use and defend your mark throughout Switzerland. The trademark registration process includes application, examination, publication, and a three-month opposition period. Ongoing management-such as updating ownership or contact details, appointing a legal representative, and handling oppositions-is essential for maintaining and enforcing your trademark rights in Switzerland.
