The pricess involves these stages:
(1) formal examination and publication in the Gazette (3 months);
(2) examination as to substance (9 months) and
(3) issuance of registration certificate of the registered mark (2 months). Kindly note that the term for registration process in practice normally takes up to several months longer due to the workload of the NOIP and the slow examination process by the NOIP’s examiner.
