Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Mauritania?

In Mauritania, to obtain protection and recognition for your trademark, it must be registered through OAPI (the African Intellectual Property Organization). A single OAPI registration grants protection not only in Mauritania, but also in all 17 OAPI member states, including countries such as Benin, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Mali, Senegal, Togo and others.

Filing through OAPI:

  • Centralizes the procedure in one registration with effect in multiple countries.
  • Gives you an exclusive right over your mark in all member states covered.
  • Makes it easier to enforce your rights against confusingly similar marks in any of those jurisdictions.

If you register a combined trademark (with both word and figurative elements) through OAPI, your exclusive right is limited to the exact form in which it is filed. If you plan to use and protect the word element separately from the logo (or vice versa), it is advisable to file additional trademarks for those elements alone.

How Long Does it Take to Register a Trademark in Mauritania?

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

Once your trademark is successfully registered via OAPI for Mauritania:

  • It is valid for 10 years from the application date.
  • It can be renewed indefinitely for further 10-year periods.
  • Renewal can be requested during a 6-month grace period after expiration, subject to payment of late renewal fees.

Because the registration is made through OAPI, your trademark will enjoy protection in all 17 OAPI member states, not just Mauritania. To keep that protection secure over time, you must also pay attention to use requirements (see below), as non-use can lead to cancellation.

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

Yes. For marks filed through OAPI (including those covering Mauritania), interested third parties may file opposition actions:

  • The opposition period is 6 months from the date of publication of the application in the Official Gazette.

If another party applies for a trademark for similar goods or services that incorporates a primary or distinctive part of your mark, you may oppose that application on the basis of confusing similarity. The chances of success will depend on the specific facts of each case.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Mauritania?

  • Use is not required to obtain registration.
  • However, if the trademark is not used for more than 5 years after registration, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on lack of use.

To avoid this, the mark must be genuinely used. The use does not need to be limited to Mauritania: use in any of the OAPI member states helps preserve the registration.
