Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Republic of Congo?

To obtain protection and recognition for your brand in the Republic of Congo, your trademark must be registered through OAPI (African Intellectual Property Organization). There is no separate national trademark registration in this country for standard filings.

When you file a trademark with OAPI (Organisation Africaine de la Propriété Intellectuelle), a single registration grants protection in all 17 member states, including the Republic of Congo, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Senegal and Togo.

OAPI is also a member of the Madrid Protocol, so protection in the Republic of Congo can be obtained either through a direct OAPI filing or via extension of an international registration through the Madrid System.

What Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in Republic of Congo?

To register a trademark in Republic of Congo (via OAPI) you need an original signed power of attorney:

It must be original (not just a copy).
It must be signed by the applicant or authorized representative.

This power of attorney allows the local agent to act on your behalf before OAPI for the Republic of Congo and the other member states.

How Long Does it Take to Register a Trademark in Republic of Congo?

The average time for a straightforward trademark application covering Republic of Congo through OAPI is about 9 months. This is an estimated processing time based on current practice and may vary depending on objections, office actions, or oppositions.

What Happens after the Trademark Registration Process in Republic of Congo is Completed?

Once your trademark is registered via OAPI:

It is valid for 10 years from the application date.
It grants protection not only in the Republic of Congo but in all 17 OAPI member states.
It can be renewed indefinitely for further 10-year periods.
The renewal can be requested during the 6-month grace period after expiration, subject to late renewal fees.

After registration, you enjoy the exclusive right to use the mark in the Republic of Congo and the rest of the OAPI region for the goods/services covered.

Can I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in Republic of Congo?

Yes. If a third party files a similar or identical trademark through OAPI that would affect your rights in the Republic of Congo:

Opposition actions may be filed by interested third parties within six (6) months from the publication of the application in the Official Gazette of OAPI.

The chances of success will depend on the similarity of the marks, the goods/services, and the strength of your prior rights.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Republic of Congo?

Use of a trademark is not required for registration via OAPI. However, to maintain the registration:

If the trademark is not used for more than five (5) consecutive years after registration, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions for non-use.
Importantly, use in any of the OAPI member states (not only in the Republic of Congo) is sufficient to defend the registration against non-use cancellation.
