Expand iconCollapse iconWhy and How Should I register a Trademark in Myanmar?

Myanmar’s new trademark law came into effect on 1 April 2023 (Notification No. 82/20230). Under this system, trademark rights come into existence only upon successful registration — actual use of a trademark by itself does not grant any rights.

For this reason, it is essential to file and obtain registration if you want legal protection for your brand in Myanmar. Trademark registration is carried out through the offices of the Department of Intellectual Property IDP.

If you register a combined trademark (including both word and figurative elements), your exclusive right to use the mark is limited to the exact configuration in which it was filed and registered. If you wish to use the word element separately from the logo (or vice versa), it is recommended to file a separate trademark including only the elements you want to use and protect independently.

To register a trademark in Myanmar, you will generally need:

  • Original Power of Attorney, signed, notarized, and legalized before the Consulate of Myanmar.
  • The name or logo you want to register
  • The applicant’s details

Your iGERENT consultant will confirm the exact requirements for your case and guide you through each step.

The average application process takes approximately 14 months.

This is an estimated process time for straightforward cases, based on current timeframes for applications. Actual processing times may vary considerably depending on the circumstances of each case.

Expand iconCollapse iconWhat Happens after the Trademark Registration Process in Myanmar is Completed?

Registered trademarks in Myanmar are granted protection for a period of 10 years, starting from the date of registration.

A trademark can be renewed indefinitely for subsequent ten-year periods. A renewal request must be filed within the six (6) months preceding the expiry date. Even if the validity period has already lapsed, renewal is still possible during a grace period of six (6) months after expiry.

Expand iconCollapse iconCan I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in Myanmar?

Yes. If a third party intends to register or use a trademark for similar goods or services that includes a primary or distinctive part of your trademark, you have the right to oppose the application on the basis of confusing similarity.

Opposition actions must be filed within sixty (60) days from the date on which the conflicting trademark application is published for registration. The probability of success for an opposition will vary in each case depending on the specific circumstances.

Expand iconCollapse iconIs Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Myanmar?

The text explains that in Myanmar, actual use of a trademark does not grant any rights, as rights arise only upon successful registration.

However, it does not specify whether ongoing use is required to maintain an existing registration or the consequences of non-use.
