Good to know

  • An applicant or proprietor not domiciled in the European Economic Area must have a representative domiciled in the European Economic Area (Trade Marks Act 544/2019, section 28).
  • The 10-year term runs from the filing date under the Trade Marks Act that entered into force on 2019-05-01; PRH states that older registrations are counted from the application date or the registration date depending on when the application was filed.
  • An application may be filed in English, but the applicant must then choose Finnish or Swedish as the processing language.
International

Madrid Protocol and regional systems

Finland is a member of the Madrid Protocol since 1996-04-01, so an international registration filed through WIPO can designate it.

EU trade mark (EUIPO)
EU trade marks registered by EUIPO are valid in all EU countries, including Finland, and can be an obstacle to registering a trademark in Finland.
