Opposition Period and Examination Amended


The opposition period and official examination have been changed as of April 15, 2016.

The opposition period is now 3 months from the application date. Before, it was 6 months from the publication of registration.
Further, the Polish Patent Office examines trademark applications only on formal and absolute grounds. The examination on relative grounds was abolished.
