On January 11, 2018, Presidential Decree No. 27/2018, which
introduces many amendments were made to the Argentinian Trademarks,
Patents and Industrial Designs Laws, was published in the
Argentinian Official Gazette (Link to the official publication: https://www.boletinoficial.gob.ar/#!DetalleNorma/177429/20180111).
The main modifications are in connection to the following:
Trademarks:
- Trademark opposition procedures:
these no longer depend on the parties' negotiation. Three
months are given as of the notification of the opposition to
negotiate between the parties. In case the opposition is not
withdrawn, the Trademark Office will study the case and issue a
resolution.
- Nullity actions are solved by the
Trademarks Office, and not a Court of Justice.
