Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Djibouti?

In Djibouti, trademark registration is mandatory to obtain rights over a mark, as it is a “first-to-file” jurisdiction. Only in some exceptional cases can an unregistered trademark be protected, so relying solely on use is not advisable.

Trademark applications must be filed with the **Office of Industrial Property and Commerce (ODPIC) ODPIC.

If you register a combined trademark (including both word and figurative elements), your exclusive rights are limited to the exact configuration in which the mark was filed and registered. If you want to use the word element separately from the logo (or vice versa), you should file a separate application for the specific elements you wish to protect individually.

It is not necessary for a trademark to be in use in Djibouti at the time of filing or registration.

What Happens after the Trademark Registration Process in Djibouti is Completed?

Once registered, a trademark in Djibouti is valid for ten (10) years from the application date.

It can be renewed indefinitely for additional periods of ten (10) years. The renewal request can be filed during the six (6) months preceding the expiration date.

Although use is not required to obtain registration, if the trademark is not used for more than five years after registration, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on non-use.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Djibouti?

A trademark does not need to be in use in Djibouti in order to be registered.

However, after registration, if the mark goes unused for more than five (5) years, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on lack of use. Maintaining genuine use of the mark within this period is therefore important to preserve your rights.
