Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. 2 Overview u 1. Comparison of procedure before the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) and the Polish Patent Office (PPO). u 2. Practical aspects of obtaining and maintaining protection under TM law.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. Obtaining TM protection – under current law u Two possible solutions: u National trade mark u Community trade mark Each procedure has its own advantages, thus both are used concurrently. 3 Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. Community trademark – advantages over national TM u Quicker procedure resulting from examination of only absolute grounds of refusal. u Validity in the entire territory of European Union. 4 Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. Community trademark – advantages over national TM u Comparable fees. u Fees due 30 days after application date. u Fast track procedure available. u Renewals due at the end of the month – payment without penalty possible for up to one month. 5 Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. National trademark –advantages over CTM u Stronger protection as a result of grant of protection after examination of relative grounds. u Lower likehood of opposition/ invalidation.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. National trademark –advantages over CTM u Fees significantly lower when application in one or two classes. u Greater probability of grant when application is based on acquired distinctiveness.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. Why having two granting authorities is better than one u Progress made in ease of filing/ registration procedure. u Both offices compete in terms of filing/ maintenance fees. u Possibilty to proceed in national language with OHIM. u Development of common practice simplifies dealing with either of the authorities.

Protecting your knowledge and creativity, the basis of your success. Thank you u Now it is time for your u Questions!!!
