Frequently Asked Questions About Trademark Renewal in Sierra Leone

Trademark protection in Sierra Leone is managed through the extension of a UK trademark registration, governed by the Trade Marks Act (Cap. 244). While Sierra Leone is an ARIPO member, it has not incorporated the Banjul Protocol into national law, making the UK-based route the primary system for trademark protection. Trademark matters are administered by the Office of the Administrator and Registrar-General (OARG).
