To file a trademark in Malaysia, no additional documents are required apart from the application itself and the details of the owner and the mark.

On average, a straightforward trademark application in Malaysia takes around 14 months from filing to registration. This is an indicative timeframe and can change depending on any objections, oppositions, or administrative delays during the process.

Once your trademark is registered in Malaysia:

• It is valid for ten (10) years from the filing date.
• It can then be renewed for further periods of ten (10) years each, indefinitely.
• The renewal can be requested during the six (6) months before the expiration date, and also during the six (6) months after expiration, subject to payment of a late renewal fee.

In addition, trademark assignments (transfers of ownership) are only possible once the trademark is registered. In Malaysia, ownership of a pending application cannot be transferred; transfer is only available for already registered trademarks.

Yes. If a third party applies for a mark that is identical or confusingly similar to your own for related goods or services, you may oppose the application.

Oppositions must be filed within two (2) months from the date the application is published in the Government Gazette. The chances of success will depend on the specific facts of the case and the strength of your prior rights.

Use is not required to obtain registration in Malaysia: you can register a mark even if it has not yet been used.

However, after registration, continuous non-use for three (3) years makes the trademark vulnerable to cancellation actions for non-use brought by third parties. To maintain your registration securely, it is advisable to use the mark in the market for the goods/services for which it is registered.
