Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Panama?

Registering your trademark in Panama is essential for protecting your commercial identity. A trademark registration grants exclusive rights, prevents competitors from using similar signs, and strengthens your brand’s legal position as you grow locally and internationally.

In Panama, trademark rights are established through use, meaning that the person or company that first—and continuously—uses a trademark in the country will have preferential rights over it. However, to effectively prevent others from using or attempting to register your mark, it is strongly recommended to file for registration. A registered trademark benefits from a presumption of ownership, making it far easier to enforce your rights in cases of infringement or disputes.

Trademark applications in Panama must be filed with the General Directorate of the Industrial Property Registry DIGERPI.

If you register a combined trademark (word + logo), your exclusive rights apply only to the exact configuration that was filed and registered. If you intend to use the word element or the design element separately, it is advisable to file additional trademark applications to protect each component independently.

What Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in Panama?

To register a trademark in Panama, you must provide a scanned copy of a signed power of attorney document. This authorizes the local representative to act on your behalf during the registration process.

Requirements may vary depending on the case, but if Panama requests additional documents, certifications, or clarifications, our team will guide you step by step. We help you gather and prepare everything needed to ensure your application is complete, compliant, and ready for filing.

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

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

A trademark registered in Panama is valid for ten (10) years from the application date. It can be renewed indefinitely for additional 10-year periods. Renewal may be filed up to one (1) year before expiration, and there is a six (6) month grace period after the expiration date during which late renewal is still possible, subject to a surcharge. If the trademark is not used for five (5) consecutive years, it may become vulnerable to cancellation actions for non-use.

Once your trademark is approved, you must renew it periodically to keep your rights active. To simplify renewals and avoid missing deadlines, you can rely on our Trademark Renewal Service in Panama, and let our team handle the dates and formalities for you.

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

Yes. In Panama, third parties may file opposition actions against a trademark application within two (2) months from the date it is published in the Industrial Property Bulletin.

The likelihood of success will depend on the specific facts and evidence of each case, but if an opposition is filed against your application, or if you wish to oppose someone else’s, we can help you assess your options and define a strategy.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Panama?

In Panama, use is not required to obtain registration. However, if the trademark remains unused for five (5) consecutive years, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on non-use.

Continuous, genuine use helps ensure your rights remain enforceable. If Panama requires proof of use or additional documentation at any point, iGERENT will guide you through the process and help you prepare all necessary evidence.

How Can I Register a Three-Dimensional (3D) Trademark in Panama?

Panama recognizes three-dimensional (3D) trademarks through the General Directorate of Industrial Property (DIGERPI). To file a 3D mark, applicants must provide a clear graphical representation of the shape from different angles and ensure that the form is distinctive and not purely functional.

Panama operates under a first-to-file system, so early filing is important, and as a Madrid Protocol member, international applications can also be extended to Panama via DIGERPI’s official website.

If you’re considering filing a 3D trademark in Panama, feel free to contact us for a free, no-obligation assessment so we can review your case and confirm the best filing strategy.
