Understanding Turkish Trademark Law
Trademark protection in Turkey is governed by Industrial Property Law No. 6769, which provides legal rights to trademark owners over their distinctive signs, including names, logos, and slogans, used to identify and differentiate their goods and services in the marketplace.
Obtaining trademark registration grants exclusive rights to the owner and prevents others from using identical or confusingly similar marks.

Our team of experienced trademark attorneys at Akkas & Associates Law Firm is well-versed in the legal intricacies and procedures associated with trademark protection in Turkey. They can provide professional advice, handle applications, and represent clients in disputes, ensuring a smooth and efficient process.
Trademark Application in Turkey
Registering a trademark in Turkey involves a formal application process with the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office (TPTO). Our expert trademark attorneys can guide you through this process, assisting with the preparation of required documents, classifying goods and services, and ensuring compliance with all legal requirements for a successful application.
Trademark Renewal Process
Trademark registrations in Turkey have a validity period of ten years, which can be renewed indefinitely. Our skilled Turkish trademark lawyers can take care of the renewal process, ensuring that your trademark remains protected without any lapses in rights.
How to Assign a Trademark in Turkey?
Transferring trademark ownership requires a careful assignment process to ensure all legal aspects are covered adequately. Our trademark attorneys can provide comprehensive support in drafting and executing assignment agreements, making certain that the transfer is legally binding and effective.
Conducting a Trademark Search
Before filing a trademark application, conducting a thorough search is essential to identify any potential conflicts with existing trademarks. Our Turkish trademark lawyers can perform a comprehensive search, assessing the availability of your desired trademark and minimizing the risk of refusal or opposition.
Overcoming Trademark Refusals
In the event of a trademark application refusal by the TPTO, our skilled attorneys can assess the grounds for refusal, develop appropriate strategies, and file appeals or modify applications to overcome objections.
