Registration of trademark in Saudi Arabia

Despite the fact that many countries have adopted the Madrid Agreement and the Protocol, there are significant differences in national systems for filing and processing trademark applications, moreover, if a country is not a party to the above-mentioned agreement and the Protocol. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is among the states that are not parties to the above international treaties.

The registration of trademarks in the kingdom is carried out by the Ministry of Commerce. It is possible to clarify the relevant laws of the country and the recommendations concerning the registration procedure on the website of the Ministry. Trademark can be represented by word, design, phrase, name, logo, symbol or a combination of the above elements.

In order for trademark in Saudi Arabia to be registered, it is necessary to submit the following documents:

  • Those confirming name, address and citizenship of the applicant;
  • Image and word designation of the trademark with translation of the used words;
  • Description of goods or services provided;
  • Sample of the stamp;
  • Power of attorney.

In order to be engaged in entrepreneurial activities, non-resident of the country is obliged to obtain an "investment license" from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

It is necessary to indicate the entire list of goods and services for which the trademark will be used, as well as the classes according to the ICGS corresponding to them in the application for registration of trademark. The exclusive right extends only to the goods and services specified in the certificate of registration.
