If your company is Russian, then you may well register your trademark yourself. This is a rather complicated and time-consuming procedure that requires time and preparation. Follow these tips and it will be much easier for you to register.
Necessary
To do this, you will need to study the legislation regarding trademarks, use the services of an artist, write an application, pay a state fee and collect a package of documents
Instructions
Step 1
Carefully study the Law of the Russian Federation "On Trademarks".
Step 2
Design and create a visual mockup of your brand with the help of a designer. It is more correct to make several options and then choose the best one.
Step 3
Decide on a list of products and / or services that your brand will cover. To do this, carefully study the International Classification of Goods and Services and find the code that suits you.
Step 4
Check your trademark for patentability. Use the registers of registered trademarks: they contain both Russian and international trademarks. This is a very important stage - the further passage of the registration procedure for your trademark depends on it.
Step 5
Pay the state fee.
Step 6
Send to Rospatent (FGU FIPS) your application for trademark registration in the prescribed form.
Step 7
You must attach a certain package of documents to your application, namely: a receipt for payment of the state duty, a copy of the company's statutory documents (or a certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur), as well as a letter from the Federal State Statistics Service, in which you will need to indicate the statistics codes assigned to your company.
Step 8
Then, when Rospatent receives your documents, it will conduct a formal examination. In the event that your documents are found to be appropriate, your trademark will be admitted to the next stage.
Step 9
The last stage: Rospatent will conduct an examination of the trademark you submitted. If everything is in order, your mark will be registered.
