Trademark rights in Malta are governed by the Trademarks Act, Chapter 597 (2019). All trademark matters are managed by the Comptroller of Industrial Property. Malta is a member of the European Union, but not of the Madrid Protocol. All renewals must be submitted directly through the Maltese system.
A trademark in Malta is valid for 10 years from the filing date and can be renewed indefinitely in additional 10-year periods.
Once removed from the register, the lapsed trademark may be registered by third parties without restriction.
Avoid these issues:
You have a 6-month grace period, followed by an additional 6-month restoration period. After that, the mark is removed from the register.
Yes, within 12 months of the expiration date, subject to the Comptroller discretion.
No. Use is not required for trademark renewal in Malta.
Update the Comptroller of Industrial Property to maintain accurate records.
