New Trademark Protection Guidelines


The Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IPI) published its new guidelines in trade mark matters on 1 January 2024. The new guidelines concern the classification of goods and services in connection with virtual environments. They contain explanations on adapting the IPI's practice with regard to trade mark applications in connection with virtual goods, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and services in virtual environments.

By adapting these guidelines, the IPI is responding to the challenges posed by the constant development of technology and intangible assets.
