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

In Romania, trademark registration is mandatory to obtain rights, because it is a “first-to-file” jurisdiction. To protect your brand, you can either:

  • file a national application before the Romanian State Office for Inventions and Trademarks (OSIM), or
  • obtain protection through a **European Union Trademark (EUTM), which covers all EU member states, including Romania, or
  • extend an International Registration via the Madrid System to Romania.
Expand iconCollapse iconWhat Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in Romania?

To register a trademark in Romania, 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 Romania?

The average time to register a straightforward trademark application in Romania is around 7 months. This is an estimated timeframe and may be longer if there are objections from the office or oppositions from third parties.

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

Once your trademark is registered in Romania:

  • it is valid for 10 years from the application date,
  • it can be renewed indefinitely for further periods of 10 years each,
  • renewal is typically requested in the 3 months before the expiration date, and in practice a short grace period with late fees may apply (according to local rules).
    After registration you enjoy the exclusive right to use the mark in Romania for the goods/services covered.
Expand iconCollapse iconCan I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in Romania?

Yes. If another party files a trademark that conflicts with yours:

  • you may oppose the application on grounds of confusing similarity,
  • the opposition must be filed within 2 months from the publication of the application.
    The chances of success depend on the similarity between the marks, the overlap in goods/services, and the strength of your prior rights.
Expand iconCollapse iconIs Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Romania?

Use is not required to obtain registration, but it is important to maintain it:

  • if the mark is not used for more than 5 consecutive years, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation for non-use,
  • the amount of use required is minimal, but there must be genuine commercial use in connection with the registered goods/services.
