Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in British Virgin Islands?

In the British Virgin Islands (BVI), prior use of a mark is not required in order to file or obtain registration. In practice, this means that registration is essential if you want to secure ownership and have an effective legal tool to stop third parties from using or copying your brand.

Since September 2015, it has been possible to register service marks directly in the BVI. Before that date, service marks generally had to be registered first in the United Kingdom and then extended to cover the BVI. Now, you can protect both trademarks for goods and service marks locally, by filing directly with the BVI Registry of Corporate Affairs of the BVIFSC.

Registering your trademark in the BVI:

  • Confirms ownership of the mark in this jurisdiction.
  • Provides a legal basis to act against infringement.
  • Allows you to oppose later conflicting applications filed by third parties.
  • Ensures long-term protection through renewable 10-year terms.

If you file a combined mark (word + logo), keep in mind that protection is limited to the exact configuration as registered. If you intend to use the word element separately from the logo (or vice versa), it is advisable to file additional applications for those elements independently.

What Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in British Virgin Islands?

To register a trademark in the BVI, you must provide an original power of attorney (POA), signed and notarized.

This notarized POA authorizes the local representative to act on your behalf throughout the filing and registration process before the BVI Registry of Corporate Affairs.

How Long Does it Take to Register a Trademark in British Virgin Islands?

The average timeframe for a straightforward trademark application in the British Virgin Islands is around 7 months from filing to registration.

This is an estimated processing time based on current practice. The actual duration may vary depending on factors such as administrative delays, any objections raised by the registry, or opposition actions filed by third parties.

What Happens after the Trademark Registration Process in British Virgin Islands is Completed?

Once your trademark is successfully registered in the BVI:

  • It is valid for 10 years, counted from the application date.
  • It can be renewed indefinitely for successive 10-year periods.
  • You may request renewal:
  • Up to 12 months before the expiration date, and
  • During a 6-month grace period after expiration, subject to additional late renewal fees.

If you do not renew within these time limits, the registration will lapse and you would need to start a new application to regain protection.

At the same time, once registered, your mark becomes part of the official BVI trademark register, giving you a public record of ownership and a legal basis to act against infringers, as long as you also respect the use requirements described below.

Can I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in British Virgin Islands?

Yes. If a third party files a trademark application in the BVI that contains a primary or distinctive part of your mark for similar goods or services, you have the right to oppose that application on the grounds of confusing similarity.

In the British Virgin Islands:

  • Opposition actions must be filed within three (3) months from the date on which the application is published in the local trademark journal.
  • The success of an opposition will depend on:
  • The similarity between the marks,
  • The relationship between the goods/services,
  • The distinctiveness and prior presence of your mark in the marketplace.

Timely monitoring of new publications and swift action are key to effectively defending your trademark in this jurisdiction.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in British Virgin Islands?

While use is not required to obtain registration, it becomes critical after the mark is registered.

In the BVI:

  • If a registered trademark is not used in the local marketplace for a continuous period of three (3) years, it may become vulnerable to cancellation actions filed by third parties based on non-use.

To maintain your rights:

  • Make sure the mark is genuinely used in the British Virgin Islands for the goods or services covered, and
  • Keep records of such use (where possible) so you can defend the registration if a cancellation action is brought.
