Avoid Losing Your Trademark Rights in Haiti

Dedicated Intellectual Property Experts

Comply with Haiti’s mid-term declaration requirement

In Haiti, a declaration of use or non-use (declaration of continuity) must be filed within the first three months of the sixth year following registration or renewal. Failure to file on time can invalidate your mark and block renewal.

Submit the Correct Type of Declaration

Whether your mark is actively used or not, you must file the right affidavit. A declaration of use shows the mark is still in force, while a declaration of non-use (with a legitimate reason) allows you to retain rights even if the mark isn’t in use.

FAQs: What to Know Before Submitting Your Declaration

Haiti’s trademark maintenance rules can feel unclear, especially if you don’t file there often or you manage multiple jurisdictions. These FAQs explain what the declaration is, when it’s due, and what you may need to prepare. If you don’t see your question here, contact our team and we’ll guide you based on your trademark details.

What is a declaration of use / continuity in Haiti?

It’s a sworn statement (affidavit) used to maintain a trademark registration in Haiti. In practice, it confirms either:

  • that your trademark is currently in use in Haiti (declaration of use), or
  • that your trademark is not in use, with a legitimate explanation (declaration of non-use)

This declaration is part of keeping your registration valid and in good standing.

When do I need to file it?

Haiti requires the declaration within the first three months of the sixth year following the registration date or following the most recent renewal. Missing this window can put your trademark at risk, so we always confirm the correct deadline before moving forward.

What happens if I miss the deadline?

If the declaration is not filed on time, your trademark registration may become vulnerable and could be considered invalid. That can create serious issues if you need to enforce your rights or renew later. Our team helps you avoid preventable risks by confirming the filing window and handling the process correctly.

Do I need proof of use?

If you’re filing a declaration of use, you will typically need to provide evidence showing the trademark is being used. What qualifies can vary depending on your industry and how the brand is used in practice.

Don’t worry, your dedicated agent will tell you what’s acceptable and help you prepare the safest submission.

What counts as acceptable proof of use in Haiti?

It depends on your goods/services and how you operate, but common examples of “proof of use” may include:

  • product packaging or labels showing the mark
  • marketing materials (brochures, ads, catalogs)
  • invoices or commercial documents
  • website or online presence evidence, if relevant to how the brand is offered

If you’re unsure what to provide, we’ll guide you step by step and help you choose evidence that supports your filing.

What if my mark isn’t in use yet?

You may still be able to maintain your registration by filing a declaration of non-use, supported by a legitimate explanation. We’ll review your situation and confirm the most appropriate approach before any filing is prepared.
