Expert Support in the Trademark Opposition Procedure in Yemen
Our law firm offers comprehensive legal advice and support in the trademark opposition process against registrations in Yemen. If you believe your trademark rights are infringed by a newly registered trademark, you have the option to file an opposition to protect your rights.
Deadlines for Filing Oppositions
The opposition must be submitted within 30 days of the trademark's publication to the relevant Yemeni Patent Office (Yemen Intellectual Property Office). Adhering to this deadline is crucial to effectively assert your claims.
Common Grounds for Opposition
The most 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.
- Insufficient Distinctiveness: A mark that is not clearly distinguishable may be considered unprotectable.
Procedure Duration and Process
The entire opposition procedure can take several months, depending on the complexity of the case and the processing time of the Patent Office. We will keep you continuously informed about all important developments throughout the process.
