Good to know

  • An applicant with no domicile, seat or real and effective industrial or commercial establishment in the EU or EEA must be represented by an authorised representative, except for filing the application itself.
  • Applications are published electronically within 7 days of the filing date; observations on absolute grounds may be filed within 2 months of that publication.
  • OSIM's fee schedule lists each fee in both lei and euro (at 1 euro = 5.0811 lei).
International

Madrid Protocol and regional systems

Romania is a member of the Madrid Protocol since 1998-07-28, so an international registration filed through WIPO can designate it.

EU trade mark (EUIPO)
An EU trade mark has a unitary character and equal effect throughout the European Union, which includes Romania.
