Trademark Renewal Services

Trademark registrations across the UAE, GCC, and most of the world are valid for 10 years and renewable indefinitely. Yet every year, valuable brands lapse – not because the owner abandoned them, but because a renewal deadline was missed in one of the many countries where the mark was registered. Once a mark lapses beyond its grace period, the owner may have to refile from zero: new application, new examination, new opposition risk – and the very real possibility that a competitor registers the name first.

Legacy Partners provides structured trademark renewal management for single registrations and multi country portfolios. Every renewal date is docketed, you receive advance reminders with a fixed fee quotation, and once instructed, we handle payment, filing, and confirmation of the renewed registration – across the UAE, all GCC states, and international jurisdictions.

Trademark Renewal in the UAE

UAE trademark registrations are valid for 10 years from the filing date and renewable for successive 10 year periods through the Ministry of Economy. Renewal should be filed during the final year of protection; a short grace period after expiry allows late renewal against payment of a surcharge, after which the registration is removed from the register.

We manage the entire UAE renewal: confirming the register status, preparing any required documents, paying official and late fees where applicable, and delivering the renewal certificate – with the next cycle immediately docketed.

Our Trademark Renewal Process

Multi Country Renewal Management

For brands registered in five, fifteen, or fifty countries, renewals become a year round operational burden with real risk attached. Our portfolio clients receive a single annual renewal calendar, consolidated quotations, one point of contact, and one invoice – while we coordinate agents, official fees, and certificates across every jurisdiction, including Madrid Protocol renewals handled centrally through WIPO.
