Trademark Registration with OSIM
Registering a trademark at the national level through OSIM (State Office for Inventions and Trademarks) grants the holder exclusive rights of use within Romania and the ability to prevent and combat unauthorized use by third parties. Trademark protection is essential for strengthening your brand identity and ensuring a secure and recognized presence in the market. Our service covers the entire trademark registration process with OSIM, from the preliminary availability assessment and selection of the appropriate classes according to the Nice Classification, to the drafting, filing, and monitoring of the application. We provide representation before the competent authority and manage any observations or oppositions, with the aim of maximizing the chances of successful registration. The procedure involves publication of the application, a period during which oppositions may be filed, and examination by OSIM, followed by the issuance of the registration certificate. Through our legal approach, we focus on risk prevention and obtaining effective protection tailored to each client’s business needs and objectives.
