This includes both the official UK IPO filing fees and iGERENT’s service fees.
By choosing iGERENT, you benefit from:
With iGERENT, your trademark registration in the UK becomes simple, predictable, and fully compliant.
No documents are initially required to register your trademark in the UK. However, depending on your filing basis and the type of mark, the UK Intellectual Property Office (UK IPO) may request supporting materials during the process.
In practical terms, most applicants will need to provide:
Your iGERENT trademark agent for UK registration will explain exactly what is needed in your case, request any missing items, and prepare everything according to UK IPO standards—so nothing important is overlooked.
The average UK trademark application takes around 4 months to complete in straightforward cases. This is an estimate only, processing time can be shorter or longer depending on examiner reviews, potential oppositions, and the complexity of your UK trademark filing.
Throughout the process, your dedicated iGERENT consultant monitors the progress of your application, keeps track of deadlines, and sends you clear updates so you never miss an important step.
After you apply for a UK trademark, the UK IPO examines it and conducts its own internal search. If there are no objections, the mark is published in the UK Trade Marks Journal.
From publication, third parties have 2 months (extendable to 3 months) to file an opposition. If no successful opposition is raised, your trademark proceeds to registration and you receive a digital registration certificate (physical copies are available at an additional cost).
A UK trademark registration is valid for 10 years from the filing date and can be renewed indefinitely in further 10-year periods. You can renew up to 6 months before the expiration date, and there is a further 6-month grace period after expiry with late fees. If the mark is not renewed within this time, it will lapse and a new application will be required to regain protection.
In addition, a UK trademark that is not used for 5 consecutive years may be vulnerable to cancellation actions for non-use.
To make sure you never miss a deadline and your protection stays active, we recommend our Trademark Renewal Service, where our team monitors dates and handles the renewal process for you.
You do not need to show prior use of the mark in the UK to apply for or obtain registration. However, use becomes critical after registration:
If a registered trademark is not used within 5 years from the date of registration, it may become subject to cancellation (revocation) actions for non-use brought by third parties.
So, while use is not required for filing, genuine use in the market is important to keep your UK trademark safe from non-use challenges.
The UK IPO allows the registration of three-dimensional (3D) trademarks to protect distinctive product shapes, packaging, or other 3D elements that function as an indicator of origin. To qualify, the shape must be non-functional and sufficiently distinctive.
In practice, applicants must provide clear visual representations of the mark—typically several views from different angles. If the shape does not have inherent distinctiveness, you may also need to prove acquired distinctiveness through use and reputation in the UK.
Because 3D trademark applications often require additional evidence and a tailored strategy, we recommend contacting us so we can review your specific case. If you’re considering filing a 3D mark in the UK, feel free to contact us for a free, no-obligation consultation so we can assess your options and advise on the best way forward.
What your UK registration does abroad depends on the specific territory:
Because each jurisdiction has its own rules, timelines and fees, the safest approach is to treat your UK trademark as a foundation, and then build tailored protection country by country (or via regional/international systems where available).
If you’re planning to expand beyond the UK, our consultants can review your target markets and advise whether you need automatic extension, re-registration, or a local filing in each territory.
Choosing iGERENT for your UK trademark application means partnering with a team committed to transparency, efficiency, and practical results.
