Dubai trademark registration services can protect your company’s name, logo, and slogan. The little ‘TM’ or ‘R’ you see under brand logos signify that the particular logo, name, and slogan are protected.
Copyright can also protect original works created by individuals or companies, such as literary works, plays, music, movies, songs, software, books, and publications.
A Trademark has to be registered in each country where the brand needs protection. A Trademark filed in the UAE will provide protection in the UAE only.
A Copyright filed in a country can be protected in several other countries, depending on the laws of the country. A copyright filed in the UAE provides protection in around 176 countries as part of the Berne Convention.
A Trademark is registered for a period of 10 years and has to be renewed every 10 years. A Copyright is usually valid for a period of 50 years. There are some variances depending on the category of work which is being copyrighted.
A Trademark takes anywhere between 10 – 12 months for final registration. During the Trademark process, the company can use the ‘TM’ symbol to discourage competition and can use the ‘R’ symbol upon final registration. A Copyright can be registered within 3 weeks to 2 months’ time. Intellectual Property protection is a very important process, which many entrepreneurs take for granted.
The use of IP protection guarantees that any non-approved or non-ethical use is stopped. As can be seen in various cases like Apple vs Samsung and more recently Lego vs LEPIN, IP protection yields its rewards.
