Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks (1891)

626

Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks was established in 1891 for the purpose of providing a mechanism that helps for international trademark registration to eliminate the need for filing, prosecuting or maintaining separate registrations in multiple countries. Registration of a mark under the Agreement provides for the legal equivalent of registration in member countries designated by the mark owner. The Agreement also provides for a simplified renewal system since registration to renew and chances to the original registration affecting all the countries included in the registration can be made through a single filing with WIPO. This Agreement includes 18 articles.
