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

To obtain trademark protection in Namibia, it is necessary to file and register your mark. Protection can be obtained in two main ways:

  • National route: by filing an application through the Department of Trademark and Commerce of the Ministry of Trade and Industry of Namibia.
  • Regional route (ARIPO): by registering the trademark through the African Regional Industrial Property Organization (ARIPO). Namibia is a member of ARIPO and a party to the Banjul Protocol. Registration through ARIPO grants protection and recognition in several member countries, as detailed on our page on trademark services in ARIPO.

Namibia is also a member state to the Madrid Protocol, which means that trademark protection may also be obtained by extending an international registration to Namibia via the Madrid System. We offer services for trademark filing through the Madrid System.

If you register a combined trademark (including both word and figurative elements) in Namibia, 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 word or figurative elements you want to use and protect independently.

Expand iconCollapse iconWhat Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in Namibia?

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

  • Original Power of Attorney, signed. No notarization or legalization required.
  • 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.

Expand iconCollapse iconHow Long Does it Take to Register a Trademark in Namibia?

The average application process takes approximately 24 months.

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

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

A registered trademark in Namibia is valid for 10 years. Trademarks may be renewed for an additional 10 years, and there is no limit to the number of subsequent ten-year renewals that may be made.

In other words, as long as renewals are filed when due, a trademark in Namibia can be maintained indefinitely.

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

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 based on confusing similarity. The probabilities of success for an opposition will vary from case to case depending on the circumstances.

Opposition actions can be filed against trademark applications within 60 days from the date on which the trademark application is published in the official bulletin/trademarks journal (as stated in the Spanish and French versions of the text).
