Gibraltar Trademark Renewal

A trademark in Gibraltar is valid for 10 years from the date of registration. It can be renewed indefinitely for further 10-year periods.

• Up to 6 months before expiration: Renewal can be filed.
• 6-month grace period after expiration: Renewal is still possible with additional fees.
• After the grace period: The trademark is cancelled and cannot be restored.

To renew your trademark in Gibraltar, you need to submit:

• The trademark registration number
• A Power of Attorney, if submitted by an agent
• Payment of the renewal fee
• Late fee, if within the grace period

If the mark is based on a UK registration, a certified copy of the renewed UK certificate is also required.

• If not renewed within the grace period, the trademark is cancelled.
• Restoration is not allowed, but you may reapply for the same mark if it available.
• Renewal of UK-based trademarks is tied to the status of the UK registration.

• Notify Companies House of any changes in address, ownership, or legal representative.
• Gibraltar does not guarantee reminder notifications, so renewal tracking is essential.

Avoid these errors:

• Failing to renew both locally and in the UK, if the registration is UK-based
• Missing the grace period deadline
• Not submitting the updated UK registration certificate

You can still renew within a 6-month grace period with an added fee. After that, your trademark is removed from the register.
