Uzbekistan Trademark Renewal

Trademarks in Uzbekistan are valid for 10 years from the application date and may be renewed for successive 10-year terms indefinitely.

• Renewal window: Within 12 months before expiration
• Grace period: 6 months after the expiration date
• After grace period: The trademark automatically lapses

• Valid Power of Attorney (a scanned copy is acceptable)
• Filing of renewal application and payment of renewal fee
• Renewals are published in the official Trademarks Bulletin

• Restoration is not allowed
• A lapsed trademark cannot be re-registered by third parties for 3 years following its termination

• Neither the trademark owner nor agent is notified of pending cancellation due to non-payment
• It's essential to track renewal deadlines internally

Avoid:

• Missing the 6-month grace period
• Incorrect Power of Attorney submission
• Assuming you'll be notified by the IP office

You may renew within 6 months after expiry, but with a late fee surcharge. After this period, the mark lapses permanently.

No. Restoration is not possible. However, third parties cannot re-register the lapsed mark until 3 years have passed.

No. Proof of use is not required for trademark renewal in Uzbekistan.
