Registration of trademarks in Bulgaria

Guaranteed registration of trademarks in Bulgaria is possible in several ways. It should be borne in mind that Bulgaria uses the algorithms of procedures that comply with EU standards, and also has its own requirements for trademarks.

Therefore, it will be rather difficult to select the most suitable method of registration for you without the help of professionals. Experienced specialists of Law&Trust International will provide full support in such selection, preparation of necessary documents and direct registration of the trademark.

For registering a brand name in Bulgaria, it is necessary to prepare unique and well-recognizable designation. It can be word, graphic or combined, but necessarily aesthetically acceptable.

There shall necessarily be distinctive elements that help consumers to orient themselves. Submission of sound, three-dimensional or olfactory trademark shall not be impediment to registration.

If you want to be aware how to register trademark in Bulgaria, then you should know that application filled in according to special form is filed with national or international office.

The following should be attached to it:

  • Description and image of the designation being registered;

  • Receipt for payment of the fee;

  • List of the classes of the ICGS for those goods and services for which this trademark is requested.

If the application materials comply with the requirements, the information on the trademark will be published in special Bulletin. When submitting the application fee shall be paid.

Right to trademark in Bulgaria

During the registration of trademarks by persons who are not residents of Bulgaria, there are certain national characteristics. They need special admission, which is issued only by the Council of Ministers of this state. In order to simplify this task, as well as subsequent work with documentation, it is necessary to involve local patent representative.

As for the verification of the claimed trademark designation for similarities with other signs, the abovementioned obligation is assigned to the applicant himself starting from 2011. Both local patent representative and employees of our company can help in this matter.

Registration of trademarks in Bulgaria according to WIPO standards applies when trademarks are required in other European countries, in addition to Bulgaria.
