Explore the step-by-step guide to understand how to register a trademark in Singapore with Corpbiz’s IP services:
Check Eligibility
Our experts will conduct an eligibility analysis based on Singapore TM registration laws. This step includes searching the database and basic compliance.
Classification of Goods & Services
We’ll help you classify the exact number of goods and services that you want covered under your trademark. Singapore follows the Nice Classification (NCL).
Appoint a Local Agent
After the completion of the initial search and product classification, we’ll help you appoint a local representative. Corpbiz has a network of 250+ local agents in Singapore who will represent you before the IPR authority.
Application with IPOS
Once you’ve appointed a local agent, we’ll proceed with the formal application to the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore with the necessary documents.
Examination of the Application
Once the IPOS authority has received your application, they’ll start the evaluation to determine if your trademark needs to be registered or not. They will also verify basic information like applicant details and payment confirmation.
Evaluation Report
You may receive a report in case the authority finds issues with your application. Our attorneys will send a reply, filing amendment, or appeal application within the prescribed deadline.
Publication
If the authority doesn’t find any problems with your application, then they’ll publish it on their “Trade Marks Journal” for two months. The authority will suspend the process and send you a notice in case a third party opposes your application. We’ll assist you in gathering the necessary evidence for the hearing.
Grant of Registration
The Singapore trademark authority will issue the certificate of trademark if nobody files an objection against your application. The certificate will be valid for 10 years.
