Why register your trademark in Iran
Your brand is how customers recognise you. A registered trademark gives you the exclusive right to use your mark for the goods and services it covers and a clear legal basis to stop others from using identical or confusingly similar marks.
Trademark rights are territorial, and registration abroad does not protect you in Iran. Early registration also guards against third parties registering your brand first, a problem that can be costly and time-consuming to reverse.

Start with a clearance search
A clearance search reveals earlier marks that could block your application or form the basis of an opposition. Searching first lets you adjust the mark, the classes or the specification before you invest in filing, and gives you confidence when launching a brand in Iran.
Choosing what to protect
Many brand owners protect both the word element of their mark and their logo. Where a brand is used in more than one script, protecting each version can be important. We help you decide which versions of your brand to file, in which classes, and in what order, balancing comprehensive protection with a sensible budget.
After registration
Registration is the beginning of protection rather than the end. We record renewal dates, keep ownership details up to date, and, through watch services, alert you to later applications that may conflict with your mark so that you can oppose them in time.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose classes for my trademark?
Goods and services are grouped into classes. We review your current and planned business and recommend the classes and descriptions that match it, so the registration covers what you actually sell.
Should I register my logo and my name separately?
Filing the name and logo separately often gives broader and more flexible protection, because each can be enforced on its own. We advise on the best combination for your brand.
What happens if my application is opposed?
An opposition is a formal objection by a third party. We assess its strength, advise on settlement or defence, and prepare the arguments and evidence needed to protect your application.
