    Is a preliminary search mandatory before filing a trademark application in Uzbekistan?
    A preliminary trademark search prior filing a trademark application is not a mandatory procedure in Uzbekistan. However, it is highly recommended, as it helps to identify potential challenges during the examination phase, thereby increasing the likelihood of successful registration of the proposed mark.
    Yes, it is possible. However, foreign companies that do not have an official representative office in the territory of Uzbekistan are not capable of filing a trademark application directly. In accordance with national legislation, such applicants are required to act through a representative — a patent attorney registered in Uzbekistan.

    The requirement to engage a local patent attorney when filing a trademark application in Uzbekistan depends on the applicant’s status.

    Citizens and legal entities registered in Uzbekistan, as well as foreign applicants with an official representative office in the country, may file applications directly in their own name.

    However, foreign individuals and legal entities without an official presence in Uzbekistan must submit trademark applications through a patent attorney registered in Uzbekistan.

    A power of attorney for representation before the Patent Office, issued in the Republic of Uzbekistan, is executed in simple written form and does not require notarization or apostille.
    Yes.

    The following are not eligible for trademark registration in Uzbekistan:

    • State and official symbols;
    • Signs lacking distinctiveness (such as individual letters, numbers, common surnames, simple geometric shapes, or forms determined solely by the functional purpose of the goods);
    • Signs that are misleading regarding the quality or origin of the goods;
    • Signs that violate public interests or are contrary to moral and ethical standards;
    • Signs that are identical or confusingly similar to previously registered trademarks.

    The standard timeframe for trademark registration in Uzbekistan is up to 8 months from the application filing date, provided that the examination proceeds without any additional requests or provisional refusals.

    If the examination authority issues additional requests, the registration period may be extended until the review and final decision on the matter.

    An expedited examination option is available in Uzbekistan, allowing for the processing of trademark applications within one month. The additional expenses for an expedited examination range from USD 233 to USD 349 depending on the number of classes and type of the mark.

    The above state fee amounts are valid as of May 2025 and may be subject to change depending on the applicable exchange rate and relevant legal regulations.

    Upon receiving an inquiry or a provisional refusal from the Patent Office, the optimal course of action is to review the contents of the request and consult a patent attorney within the prescribed response period.

    As a rule, the response deadlines are as follows: 3 months for national registration and 6 months for international registration.

    The renewal of the trademark may be completed by submitting a renewal application. The renewal application must be filed within the final year of the validity of the certificate. If this deadline is missed, the application may still be submitted within six months after the expiration of the certificate, provided that the prescribed governmental fee is paid.
