Registering a trademark in Dubai gives you exclusive rights across all seven emirates and helps you stop copycats from harming your reputation. This legal protection builds trust with customers and investors and becomes the foundation for expanding your brand both locally and under the Madrid Protocol.
The process follows a clear workflow at the UAE Ministry of Economy: conduct a trademark search to avoid conflicts, submit your application online, pass formal and substantive examinations, wait through a 30-day opposition period after publication, and finally receive your certificate of registration.
Key Steps
- Conduct a preliminary trademark search to ensure uniqueness
- Prepare and submit your application with required documents
- Undergo formal and substantive examination by the Ministry
- Monitor the 30-day publication and opposition window
- Pay final fees and obtain your trademark registration certificate
