Common Mistakes to Avoid When Renewing a Trademark in Bahrain

Missing the renewal deadline: If renewal is not completed within the grace period, the trademark will lapse permanently.
Failing to submit a properly legalized Power of Attorney: Incorrect documentation can cause delays or rejection.
Assuming renewal is automatic: MOICT does not send automatic renewal reminders. Trademark owners must track their deadlines.

By avoiding these mistakes, trademark owners can ensure their brand remains protected under Bahraini trademark law.
