End-to-End Trademark Registration in Saint Helena

Trademark protection in **Saint Helena (including Ascension and Tristan da Cunha) is obtained by re-registering a UK trademark.

To protect your mark:

• You must first register the trademark in the United Kingdom.
• Once the UK registration is granted and valid, you can extend protection to Saint Helena by applying for re-registration before the Registry of the Supreme Court, which acts as the local IP office.
• The re-registration in Saint Helena gives you exclusive rights to use the mark in relation to the goods/services covered in that territory.

It is recommended to carry out a trademark search in the UK beforehand to identify any prior conflicting marks.

To re-register a UK trademark in Saint Helena, you need the original trademark certificate of the UK registration that serves as the basis for re-registration.

• The average time to complete the process is about 4 months for a straightforward case.
• Actual timing may vary depending on the circumstances.

After successful examination and the opposition period:

• The trademark is registered in Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, and
• The owner receives a certificate of registration for Saint Helena, granting exclusive rights to use the mark for the goods/services covered.

Duration and renewal:

• The initial protection period in Saint Helena is identical to the UK trademark on which it is based.
• It can be renewed indefinitely in further 10-year periods, provided:
  • The UK registration is renewed first, and
  • The required renewal fees and documents are filed for Saint Helena.
