Do I need an EU representative for my EUIPO trademark application if I am not located in the European Union?
Yes. If you are based outside the EU, you need an EEA-based professional representative admitted before the EUIPO. The European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) in Alicante requires such a representation according to Article 41 EUTMR.
Can an EU trademark lawyer take over the representation of an already filed EUIPO application?
Yes. A qualified EUIPO representative like a European Patent, Trademark and Design Attorney or German Certified Intellectual Property Lawyer (like the trademark attorneys at LICHTNECKER & LICHTNECKER) can be recorded at any stage of a self-filed EU trademark application.
Can I appoint an EUIPO representative only for the address for service for a self-filed EU trademark application?
Yes. Intellectual Property Law Firms like our experienced German Patent and IP Law Firm LICHTNECKER & LICHTNECKER also offer limited representation purely to meet EUIPO formal requirements.
How much does an EUIPO representative cost?
Costs vary, but for Article 41 EUTMR deficiencies, we offer low flat fee prices with no hidden fees, a quick turnover and handling of your self-filed EU trademark application.
What happens if I ignore the Article 41 EUTMR notice issued against my self-filed EU application?
If you ignore the Article 41 EUTMR irregularity notice, your self-filed EUIPO trademark application will be refused, and you will lose your filing date and the already paid official fees of at least 850 €.
What is the deadline to react to an Article 41 EUTMR deficiency?
The deadline to react to an Article 41 EUTMR deficiency of the European Union Intellectual Property Office and to appoint a qualified EUIPO representative is usually 2 months after receipt of the notification / provisional refusal.
