Protect beyond your borders
There is no single global trademark. Choose where you need rights and the route that fits.
Three ways to reach the same goal
The right route depends on where you trade and how broad the protection must be.
National filings
File separately in each country where protection is needed.
Regional systems
One application may cover several member states.
The Madrid system
Designate multiple countries through an international application based on an eligible home filing.
A registration protects you only where rights are granted. Focus on markets that matter.
Registration costs, country by country
Starting estimates are shown for planning. Final costs depend on scope and office fees.

A sensible starting order
Protect the markets that matter before expanding coverage.
Home market
Secure your base jurisdiction first.
Export markets
Cover countries where goods are sold.
Manufacturing
Consider where products are made and shipped.
Online channels
Consider marketplaces and online storefronts.
Future markets
Plan early for realistic expansion.
Watch and renew
Track deadlines so rights do not lapse.
