If you are a resident of
the country you can register a trademark by yourself in the National Trademark
Office. However, the process is very complicated and without appropriate
assistance, it is very unlikely to fill out all documents and go through the
whole procedure successfully. Because of this, it is better to hire a
professional attorney, who is able to simplify the process of registration for
you and save your time and money.
There is a slightly different situation with international registration. Foreign residents have no direct access to the National Trademark Offices in other countries. Due to this if you wish to file for a trademark somewhere outside of your country of residence, you have to hire a professional local attorney to represent your interests there.
There is only one
exception WIPO | Madrid – The International Trademark System. However, the
system is available only for countries-members (121 countries of the world) and
only for residents of these countries, provides very limited protection and
requires a considerable amount of time and effort for registration.
First, you apply for a
trademark in your country of residence and wait until you obtain a trademark
there, after, using WIPO, you file the trademark in other
countries through your National Trademark Office and wait for registering your
mark there.
However, an experienced
attorney is always able to simplify the process of registration, increase the
chances and the speed of registration and save your time and money. If you're looking for an affordable IP attorneys in Vietnam, check out ANTLawyers.vn. ANTLawyers.vn was
