Lifecycle of an application for the registration of trademarks

Applications for the registration of trademarks in Cyprus of different classes must be made individually, despite the mark being identical for each class filed and they are addressed to the Registrar of Trademarks, which is the competent authority for the registration of trademarks in Cyprus. The application procedure itself is an activity reserved for practicing advocates, appointed by the intended applicant to file the application.
