Protect Your Brand with UAE Trademark Registration

Trademark registration in the UAE protects your business identity, assets, and intellectual property rights under the UAE Trademark Law. Registered trademarks grant exclusive rights in the UAE and deter counterfeiting and brand misuse. This protection supports business growth, reputation, and market differentiation.

Key Benefits of Trademark Registration in the UAE

Legal Brand Protection: Trademark registration gives you exclusive commercial rights over your brand identity and prevents competitors from copying or using similar marks.
Enhanced Business Reputation: A registered trademark builds credibility with customers, partners, and investors, strengthening your brand’s market position.
Market Exclusivity: Trademark protection lowers infringement risk and allows you to take legal action against unauthorized use in the UAE market.
Asset for Business Growth: A registered trademark enhances business value and supports franchising, licensing, and future expansion.

Steps to Register a Trademark in the UAE

1. Trademark Search & Clearance

Conduct a thorough search to confirm the trademark name, logo, or symbol is not already registered. This step identifies possible conflicts and reduces the risk of application rejection.

2. Prepare Application Documents

Prepare the Trademark Registration Application with:

Trademark image or design
List of goods or services under the relevant classes
Copy of UAE trade licence or Emirates ID
Power of Attorney, if applicable
Applicant contact details and authorised signatory ID

3. Submit Trademark Application

Applications are submitted online via the UAE Ministry of Economy portal. G12 ensures correct submission details, class selection, and proper documentation to meet regulatory requirements.

4. MOE Examination & Publication

The Ministry of Economy examines the application to confirm compliance with UAE intellectual property standards. If approved, the mark is published in the official trademark bulletin and local newspapers, opening a 30-day objection period.

5. Objection Response & Final Registration

If no objections are raised within the notice period, or once objections are resolved, the final registration fee is paid, and the trademark registration certificate is issued. Registered trademarks in the UAE are valid for 10 years.
