Trademark Searches Possible


The Intellectual Property Office of Montenegro (IPO) informed that the Trademark Database of Montenegro became available for conducting trademark searches. It is possible to file requests before the IPO of Montenegro for conducting the official searches through national Trademark database.

At this moment, the Trademark Database of Montenegro covers only those trademarks registered or applied for before the IPO of Montenegro. As the process of revalidation of Serbian trademark registrations in Montenegro has not yet been finished, the trademark searches do not cover the Serbian trademark registrations yet. Once the revalidation process is finished (deadline is December 16th, 2011), Montenegrian Trademark Database will be completed. Until then, it is recommended to conduct simultaneous searches in both Montenegro and Serbia to guarantee completeness of the results.
