Claiming Priority Possible Now


The Kuwaiti Trademark Office announced that priority claims would be available for trademark applications in Kuwait as from January 1, 2015.

The trademark applicants will be able to claim priority (within the six-month priority period) from corresponding applications filed in any of the other member states of the Paris Convention.

As for priority documentation, the Kuwait Trademarks Office will submit a certified copy of the priority application legalized up to Kuwaiti Consulate along with Arabic sworn translation certified by the Translation Department at the Ministry of Justice in Kuwait. Such document can be filed within three months of the date of filing the application.
