We recommend registrating a trade mark
To promote business, we advise you to protect a trade mark. Protection is necessary if you want to distinguish your products and services from those of your competitors and create lasting customer relationships. The value of the trade mark increases over time, therefore early protection – even before the product itself is launched – is beneficial for the company. If you register your trade mark, your competitors will also be informed that such a trade mark belongs exclusively to you and allows you to stand up for your rights in case of problems. As the owner of a registered mark, you are able to sell the trade mark or grant use on the basis of a licence. A trade mark is also essential if a successful business model is to be franchised.
In order to obtain protection for a trade mark, an application for registration of the trade mark must be filed on the website of the Patent Office. For help and advice, contact the Patent Office by phone +372 627 7937 or email kaubamark@epa.ee. Consultations on the spot are also possible upon agreement.
