Every year the Ukrainian Intellectual Property Office receives more than 70,000 new trademark applications. In total, there are more than 210,000 active trademark registrations in Ukraine.
15-20% of applications are refused in registration.
In order not to get into this list and not waste time and money, it is necessary to conduct high-quality preliminary searches before the application is submitted.
In Ukraine, it is possible to register verbal, image, and combined trademarks (containing both text and an image). Accordingly, the search should include all elements of the future application. It is worth remembering that the verbal part always remains predominant.
