Bureau for Intellectual Property of Sint Marten Now Online


The Benelux Intellectual Property Office (BOIP) has announced that the website of the Bureau for Intellectual Property of Sint Maarten is now online. The new BIP SXM is being established to register trademarks in Sint Maarten in partnership with BOIP. It needs to be noted that it is not yet possible to file applications for Sint Maarten trademarks with BIP SXM/ BOIP. At this moment BIP CUR is still the competent authority for Sint Maarten trademarks.

Alongside the website, a new online register for Sint Maarten is now also available. Trademarks cannot yet be filed with the BIP SXM, but this will be possible once the necessary legislation is in place.

All international trademark registrations valid in Sint Maarten are included in the online register. They will be mentioned in the list of trademarks found after a search and can also be retrieved by their registration numbers.
For detailed information concerning these international trademarks, the online register provides a link to the WIPO ROMARIN database, their original source. This link is activated by clicking the trademark concerned.
