Certificates of Registration


The Libyan Trademark Office started issuing registration certificates in 2011, but because of civil unrest in the country the documents were kept on file without notification of the agents of record. In August 2012, the Libyan Trademark Office started distributing the issued certificates to the agents of record. This means that the registration certificates for all pending trademarks that have been accepted and published are expected to be issued in the near future.

The Office is still not functioning at a normal pace. It is currently only examining pending applications and issuing notices of acceptance. As a result, all new applications and search requests are being kept on hold until further notice.
