Trademark rights in Malawi are regulated by the Trademarks Act of 1957, as amended, and the Trademarks Regulations of 2018. The responsible authority is the Registrar General's Department, under the Ministry of Justice. Malawi is a member of the ARIPO and has incorporated the Banjul Protocol into its national law, allowing for both national and ARIPO renewals.
A trademark in Malawi is valid for 10 years from the date of application and is renewable for successive 10-year periods.
Avoid these issues:
You have a 6-month grace period with a surcharge. After that, the mark is cancelled and must be re-registered.
No. Restoration is not permitted. A new application must be submitted.
No. Use is not a requirement for trademark renewal in Malawi.
You must inform the Registrar General Department to ensure accurate correspondence.
