Protect Your Brand Before Someone Else Registers It
Trademark registration in Nepal is handled through the Department of Industry, and it works on a first-to-file basis — meaning the business that files first generally secures the rights, even if another business used the name earlier without registering it. CompanySathi handles trademark search, application filing, and follow-through to certificate for brand names, logos, and taglines.
We check for conflicting marks before filing, prepare the application in the correct class of goods/services, and track the process through publication and objection periods so your brand identity is properly protected.
We check existing registrations before filing to flag conflicts early, not after rejection.
Applications filed under the correct Nice Classification for your goods or services.
If an objection is raised during publication, we represent your application through resolution.
Guidance on renewal timelines and monitoring for infringing marks after registration.
We search existing marks to assess registrability and conflict risk.
Application filed with the Department of Industry in the correct class.
The application is reviewed by the registrar; we respond to any office objections.
The mark is published for opposition; we monitor and respond to any third-party objections.
Once unopposed or objections are resolved, your trademark certificate is issued.
A straightforward, unopposed trademark registration in Nepal typically takes several months from filing to certificate, longer if objections are raised during examination or publication.
No, but Nepal follows a first-to-file system, so an unregistered brand name has weak legal protection against a competitor who registers it first.
They are typically filed as separate applications — a word mark for the name and a device/logo mark for the visual — to give each the fullest possible protection.
A trademark registration in Nepal is valid for a set term from the registration date and must be renewed before expiry to remain protected.
