Good to know

  • Applications are submitted through a lawyer on DIGERPI's form; applicants domiciled abroad must designate an address in Panama for administrative and judicial notifications, and must declare whether the mark is in use or will be used.
  • MICI's registration guide states that if an opposition is filed, the applicant presents its arguments before the commercial courts.
  • MICI's registration guide points applicants to DIGERPI's availability check at consulta.digerpi.gob.pa/Marcas/Disponibles before filing; that page refused connections on 2026-11-12, so it could not be inspected.
International

Madrid Protocol and regional systems

Panama is not a member of the Madrid Protocol, so an international registration through WIPO cannot designate it.
