Intellectual property protection in Iran, from first filing to final defence.

Intellectual property is one of the most valuable assets a business owns, yet it only has value where it is protected. Rights in patents, trademarks and industrial designs are territorial: a registration in Europe, the United States or elsewhere in the region does not automatically protect you in Iran. Companies that sell, license, manufacture or plan to enter the Iranian market need their rights secured locally, and they need a representative who understands both the procedure and the commercial stakes.

Iran IP is an intellectual property practice dedicated to exactly that work. We act for Iranian innovators and for international applicants, managing patent registration in Iran, trademark registration in Iran and the protection of industrial designs. Beyond registration, we defend those rights through oppositions, cancellation actions and enforcement against infringement and counterfeiting.

Our clients value a single, reliable point of contact who handles every step: searches and strategy, preparation of applications, correspondence with the registry, responses to objections, renewals and recordals. We explain each stage in plain language, so you always know where your matter stands and what comes next.

Why Iran IP

Focused counsel for a demanding field

Specialist focus

Intellectual property is our entire practice. That focus means careful filings, well-reasoned responses and strategy built around your portfolio rather than a single application.

Deadline discipline

Priority dates, response periods, annuities and renewals are tracked for every client. Rights are lost through missed deadlines far more often than through refusals, and we make sure that never happens on our watch.

Clear communication in English

We report in clear English, explain the options and their consequences, and give realistic expectations for timing and cost before you commit.

Confidentiality

Unpublished inventions and brand launch plans are commercially sensitive. Every matter is handled with strict confidentiality from first contact.

FAQ

Questions about IP protection in Iran

Short answers to the questions we hear most often. See all questions.

Do I need to register a trademark in Iran if it is already registered elsewhere?

Trademark rights are territorial. A registration in another country does not by itself protect your mark in Iran, so brand owners who sell, manufacture or plan to enter the Iranian market should secure protection there directly.

Can a foreign company or individual file for patents and trademarks in Iran?

Yes. Foreign applicants can protect patents, trademarks and industrial designs in Iran. Applications are generally handled through a local representative who manages filing, correspondence with the registry and deadlines.

What should I do before filing a trademark application?

We recommend a clearance search first. It identifies earlier registrations or applications that could block your mark or lead to an opposition, and allows you to adjust the filing strategy before costs are incurred.

How long does registration take?

Timelines depend on the type of right, the classes or technology involved, the examination workload of the registry and whether any objection or opposition arises. We give a realistic estimate for your specific matter at the outset.
