Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Madagascar?

In Madagascar, trademark registration is mandatory to obtain rights over a mark because it is a “first-to-file” jurisdiction. Only in very exceptional situations can an unregistered mark be protected, so relying on use alone is risky.

To secure protection, trademark applications must be filed before the Malagasy Industrial Property Office (OMAPI). If you register a combined trademark (word + logo), your exclusive rights cover the mark exactly as filed. If you want to use and protect the word element separately from the logo (or the logo separately from the word), you should plan on filing separate trademark applications for those elements.

Can I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in Madagascar?

In Madagascar, opposition against a trademark application is not available as a pre-registration procedure.

However, if a third party manages to register a trademark that includes a primary or distinctive part of your mark for similar goods or services, you can file cancellation actions (post-registration oppositions) based on your prior rights. The chances of success will depend on the specific circumstances and evidence in each case.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Madagascar?

A trademark does not need to be in use to be registered, but use becomes important after registration. If the mark is not used for more than three (3) years after registration, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on non-use. Using the mark in the market helps keep the registration safe from this type of attack.
