Recording a trademark in the customs register

A certificate gives you the right to prohibit use of the brand. The customs register turns that right into a working mechanism: only you may import goods bearing your mark, and third-party shipments are stopped at the border.

01

Eligibility check

The register only works with a registered mark. We review what exists and what is missing before filing.

02

Document preparation

We assemble the file: details of the mark, the goods, authenticity features and suspected infringements.

03

Filing and follow-through

Handled by our customs specialist. We follow the case until the mark is entered in the register.

04

Detention support

We advise on what to do when customs holds a shipment: response deadlines and the steps that follow.

What you end up with

An exclusive import right and a working barrier against counterfeits at the border.
