Trademark Registration in Dubai
A trademark is a unique symbol, word, logo, image, or combination thereof that represents your brand’s identity and distinguishes your products or services from others in the market. In the UAE, trademark registration is handled by the Ministry of Economy and offers legal protection across all Emirates. Once registered, a trademark is valid for 10 years and grants exclusive usage rights to the registering entity.
At Nexoviz, we specialize in trademark registration in Dubai and across the UAE, ensuring your brand is safeguarded from unauthorized use. A registered trademark not only reinforces your brand identity but also strengthens market presence and enhances brand recognition. From application to approval, our team guides you through each step to secure your intellectual property with confidence.
How to Obtain Trademark Registration in Dubai
The trademark registration process in Dubai begins with a comprehensive search to ensure your desired trademark is not already registered by another entity. This crucial first step helps avoid conflicts and rejections, which is why it’s advisable to engage an experienced professional to conduct the search on your behalf.
Once availability is confirmed, the next step is to file your trademark application with the UAE Ministry of Economy. This process involves multiple stages and requires submission of specific documents alongside the official application form. At Nexoviz, we streamline this process for you — ensuring accuracy, compliance, and timely submission at every stage.
Documents & Process for Trademark Registration in Dubai
To initiate your trademark registration in the UAE, you’ll need to prepare and submit the following documents:
A clear sample of the proposed trademark
A valid business license
A list of goods or services the trademark will cover
Emirates ID or passport copy of the applicant, along with contact details
A Power of Attorney authorizing the applicant to act on behalf of the company
There are specific guidelines regarding the format and submission of trademark samples. For accurate compliance, our experts at Nexoviz can guide you through these requirements.
Once the application is complete and submitted to the UAE Ministry of Economy, an initial payment is made. If the documentation is in order, the Ministry issues a preliminary approval, which is then published in two local Arabic newspapers. A 30-day objection period follows. If no objections are raised, a final fee is paid, after which you receive your official UAE Trademark Registration Certificate. This certificate includes your company’s name, the scope of trademark protection, and the date of issuance.
