Trademark & IP services · United Arab Emirates
Protect what makes your business yours.
Trademark registration and intellectual property services across the UAE, from your first brand search to protection around the world.
A trademark is the name, logo or sign that sets your business apart. Registering it with the UAE Ministry of Economy and Tourism gives you exclusive rights in all seven emirates for 10 years, renewable.
Trademark rights stop at the border. Through national filings and the Madrid System, you can extend protection to the GCC and 130+ countries.
Copyright protects creative work such as software, designs, art and content. Patents protect new inventions for up to 20 years.
Registration is only the start. Watching new filings, opposing copycats and recording your mark with customs keep your brand protected.
Intellectual property, explained
Four ways to protect what your business owns
Intellectual property is anything your business creates with its mind: its name, its ideas, its designs. Each type is protected in a different way.
Trademark
Names, logos, slogans and signs that identify your goods or services.
Copyright
Original works: software, writing, artwork, music, photos and media.
Patent
New inventions and technical solutions, protected for up to 20 years.
Industrial design
The look of a product: its shape, pattern and appearance.

Questions
Good to know before you file
Is my trade licence name the same as a trademark?
No. A trade name identifies your company, but only a trademark registered with the Ministry of Economy and Tourism gives you exclusive rights to your brand across the UAE.
Does one UAE trademark cover all the emirates?
Yes. Trademarks are registered federally, so one registration protects your brand in all seven emirates, including free zones.
How long does registration take?
Usually around 4 to 6 months if there are no objections or oppositions.
