Search the Rospatent register

FIPS Information Retrieval System (Информационно-поисковая система) is Federal Service for Intellectual Property's own search tool.

Tool: FIPS Information Retrieval System (Информационно-поисковая система)
Languages: Russian, English
Free: No
Account required: Yes
Limits: Searching the trademark databases is paid and needs a FIPS account; without one the system shows only the free databases (trademarks published in the last month and the classifications), and the free Open Registers work by number only.

How to search

Open the Information Retrieval System of the Federal Institute of Industrial Property (FIPS); it can be entered without a login, but then only a limited set of free databases is available.
To search the Russian trademark and trademark application databases, register with FIPS and pay for access by card or bank transfer, then log in with the Войти (Log in) button.
Payment is per request: one search in most databases counts as one request, while one search in the Russian trademark application databases counts as five.
For a single known mark, the free FIPS Open Registers (Открытые реестры) return the record with its legal status by registration or application number.
International registrations designating Russia are no longer searchable at FIPS; FIPS points to WIPO's Madrid Monitor for them.

Good to know

Citizens permanently residing outside Russia and foreign legal entities must deal with Rospatent through patent attorneys registered with it, unless an international treaty provides otherwise (Civil Code, Article 1247).
There is no third-party opposition before registration; according to WIPO's Madrid member profile, Rospatent does not allow opposition by third parties.
The application itself must be in Russian; attached documents in another language need a Russian translation (Civil Code, Article 1492).

International

Madrid Protocol and regional systems

Russia is a member of the Madrid Protocol since 1997-06-10, so an international registration filed through WIPO can designate it.
