Trademark Applications

1. Power of attorney duly completed with your client’s exact full name or company, the exact address including location and simply signed. It could be sent by return fax. It does not require Notary Certification or Consular Legalization.
2. If the trademark is to be registered with a design or device, we need an example. If the design or device includes color, it should be sent in color.
3. International Classification (it is not necessary to specify the goods) in which the mark must be filed.  Also, it is important to let you know that we have a multi-class system so a mark could be filed for more than one class in only one application form. The “use” of the mark is not mandatory. 

Collective Trademark Applications

   Art. 39: The application for the registration of a collective mark shall include the corresponding usage regulations with the identification of the association filing the application together with the persons authorized to use the mark, the requirements to become a member of the association, the conditions for the usage of the corresponding mark and the reasons why the usage of the mark may be prohibited to one of its members.
