Frequently Asked Questions About Trademark Renewal in Belarus

In Belarus, trademarks are registered with the National Center of Intellectual Property (NCIP) and must be renewed every 10 years to maintain protection.

Failure to renew on time results in automatic lapse, but a 6-month grace period is available for late renewals with an additional fee. If the trademark is not renewed within this period, it is permanently removed from the register and cannot be restored. However, third parties are restricted from registering the same mark for six months after lapse.
