Malawi Trademark Act 2018 Not in Force Yet


As reported earlier, the new Malawi Trademarks Act (2018) has been published on February 2, 2018. It will repeal the existing Trademark Act of 1957.

However, the Trademark Act 2018 is not yet in force, as no subordinate laws (ordinances) have been enacted. This is expected to take some time, at least one year. Until then, the Trademark Act of 1957 still applies.
