Frequently Asked Questions

Why and How Should I register a Trademark in Tonga?

In Tonga, trademark registration is mandatory in order to be granted rights over a trademark, as it is a "first to file" jurisdiction. Only in some exceptional cases can an unregistered trademark be protected, so relying on use alone is risky. Trademark applications must be filed with the Registry & Intellectual Property Office RIPO of Tonga. If you register a combined trademark (including both word and figurative elements), your exclusive rights are limited to the exact configuration in which the mark was filed and registered. If you wish to use or protect the word and logo separately, it is recommended to file additional trademarks that cover each element on its own.

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

Yes. If a third party attempts to register a trademark that includes a primary or distinctive part of your trademark for similar goods or services, you have the right to oppose the application based on confusing similarity. Opposition actions may be filed by interested third parties within three (3) months following the application’s publication in the Government Gazette. The probability of success for an opposition will vary in each case depending on the specific circumstances.

Is Trademark Use Required to Maintain Registration in Tonga?

A trademark in Tonga does not need to be in use in order to be registered. However, if it is not used for a consecutive period of three (3) years after registration, it becomes vulnerable to cancellation actions based on lack of use. For this reason, it is important to ensure that the registered mark is genuinely used in connection with the goods or services for which it was registered.
