Trademark protection in the Republic of the Congo is handled through its membership in the African Intellectual Property Organization (OAPI). There is no national trademark law; all trademark matters are managed via the centralized OAPI system under the Bangui Agreement.
Trademarks filed via OAPI are valid for 10 years from the filing date and are renewable indefinitely for additional 10-year periods.
Avoid:
You have 6 months after expiration to renew with a 25% surcharge. After that, the trademark lapses and cannot be restored.
No. Restoration is not available under OAPI regulations.
No. Use is not a requirement for renewal in the Republic of the Congo.
Update your details with OAPI headquarters in Yaoundé, Cameroon to ensure communication is uninterrupted.
