Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Sierra Leone?

You should register your trademark in Sierra Leone because protection and enforcement in practice are based on registration. Filing a trademark gives you a clear, officially recognized right that is much easier to defend than relying on unregistered use alone.

Trademark applications in Sierra Leone must be filed with the trademark section of the Administrator and Registrar-General's Department of Sierra Leone OARG.

Sierra Leone is also a member state of the Madrid Protocol, so protection can be obtained either by:

Filing a national application directly with OARG, or
Extending an International Registration to Sierra Leone via the Madrid System. We offer services for trademark filing through the Madrid System.

Once registered, your trademark:

Confers exclusive rights for the goods/services covered.
Provides a solid basis to act against infringers or later conflicting filings.
Can be treated as a valuable asset (licensing, franchising, assignments, etc.).

How Much Does it Cost to Register a Trademark in Sierra Leone?

The cost to register a trademark in Sierra Leone is US$ 800 for the first class, plus US$ 600 for each additional class. This fee includes both the official government filing costs and iGERENT’s professional service fees.

In Sierra Leone, a final registration fee of US$ 590 applies for the first class and US$ 490 for each additional class. This payment will only be due in case of successful registration.

What Documents are Required for Trademark Registration in Sierra Leone?

To register a trademark in Sierra Leone, you need a scanned copy of a signed Power of Attorney (PoA) authorizing a local representative to act before OARG.

In practical terms, your representative will also need:

Full applicant details (name, address, nationality/legal form).
A clear representation of the mark (word mark, logo, or combined).
The list of goods and/or services classified under the Nice Classification.

How Long Does it Take to Register a Trademark in Sierra Leone?

The average time for a straightforward trademark application to proceed to registration in Sierra Leone is about 12 months from filing.

This is an estimated timeframe and may vary depending on:

The examination workload of the office.
Any formal or substantive objections raised by the examiner.
Possible oppositions filed by third parties.

What Happens after the Trademark Registration Process in Sierra Leone is Completed?

Once your trademark is registered in Sierra Leone:

It is valid for fourteen (14) years.
It can be renewed indefinitely for further periods of fourteen (14) years each, provided renewals are filed and paid on time.

The registration certificate serves as official proof of ownership and can be relied on in administrative or judicial actions against infringers.

Can I Oppose Someone Else’s Trademark Application in Sierra Leone?

Yes. Opposition actions may be filed by interested third parties against a trademark application within three (3) months following its publication in the trademarks journal.

Oppositions are usually based on:

Confusing similarity with an earlier registered or well-known mark.
Other legal grounds provided under Sierra Leone trademark law.

The chances of success will depend on the specific facts and evidence of each case.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Sierra Leone?

A trademark does not need to be in use in order to be filed or registered in Sierra Leone.

However, after registration:

If the mark is not used for more than five (5) years, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on lack of use brought by third parties.

To minimize this risk, the mark should be genuinely used in trade in Sierra Leone, for the goods/services covered, and such use should be documentable (invoices, advertising, website evidence, etc.).
