Good to know
- An application must be in English, and the Director may refuse to consider a document not in English until given a translation verified by affidavit (Trade Marks Regulations 1984, regulation 7).
- An applicant residing outside Barbados must give an address for service within Barbados, and an application made by an agent must be accompanied by a power of attorney (Trade Marks Act, Cap. 319, section 10).
- Section 25 of the Trade Marks Act makes a registration valid for 10 years from its date of registration; CAIPO states that the protection given by registration runs from the date the application was filed.
Madrid Protocol and regional systems
