Search by: mark name, application number, registration number, status, holder, representative, application date, registration date, priority date, Nice class, mark type
Languages: German, English
Free: Yes
Account required: No
Limits: For Austrian marks, only the unexamined goods and services from the application are shown until registration, and international registrations are shown with their scope at the time of registration; the office gives all data without guarantee.

How to search

Open see.ip and choose Marken suchen (search trademarks); switch the interface to English in the language menu if needed.
Under Markentypen tick national marks (ÖPA), EU trade marks (EUIPO) and/or international marks (WIPO).
Enter a mark name, application number or registration number, and optionally filter by status: filed, registered, deleted or application ended.
Narrow the search by holder or representative, by application, registration or priority date, by Nice class or by mark type, then click Suchen (Search).
For later changes to international registrations, check WIPO's Madrid Monitor; for EU trade marks, EUIPO's eSearch may hold more information.

Good to know

Anyone without a residence or establishment in Austria, Switzerland or the EEA needs a professional representative (patent attorney, lawyer or notary); filing by e-mail is not allowed.
The office does not examine whether identical or confusingly similar earlier marks exist; owners of earlier marks can oppose after registration or apply for cancellation.
The renewal fee for an individual mark is EUR 700, payable within one year before the term ends, or EUR 840 (20% surcharge) within the 6-month grace period after it ends.

International

Madrid Protocol and regional systems

Austria is a member of the Madrid Protocol since 1999-04-13, so an international registration filed through WIPO can designate it.

EU trade mark (EUIPO): An EU trade mark gives its owner an exclusive right in all current and future EU Member States, including Austria.
