To protect your trademark rights in Barbados, registration is necessary. Without a registered trademark, you cannot stop third-party infringement nor claim exclusive rights over the mark.
To obtain protection, a trademark application must be filed with the Office of Corporate Affairs and Intellectual Property of Barbados, also known as CAIPO. Prior use of the trademark in Barbados is not required for it to be accepted for registration.
If you register a combined trademark (which includes both word elements and figurative elements) in Barbados, your exclusive right to use the mark is limited to the exact configuration in which it is filed and registered. If you wish to use the word element and the logo separately, it is advisable to file additional applications to protect each element on its own.
