What is Trademark Renewal?
Registered trademarks have a 10-year validity and can be renewed indefinitely. A trademark can be renewed, 6 months before the date of expiry. A notice will be sent to your registered address before the date of expiry.
If you still do not file for renewal, the registrar may advertise its intention to remove the trademark in the Trade Marks Journal. This is, however, likely to happen only 12 months after the expiry date. Between 6 and 12 months after expiry, by paying a trademark renewal fee through a process called ‘restoration’.

Trademark Renewal Registration Process

- Alteration and change of sign or logo of the registered trademark.
- Application made without any change of trademark.
The procedure is as follows-
- An trademark renewal application is made in the form of TM-R.
- The trademark renewal application can be filed by either the registered owner of the trademark or an agent authorized by him.
- Filing a trademark renewal application for trademark, renews it for another 10 years.
- After filing the Trademark Renewal application, it is very important to check the status of your application periodically until it is processed by the registrar.
- The Trademark Journal is an official gazette of the Trademark registry which governs the application status whether it is accepted or not. If accepted then it is advertised in the Trademark Journal. Therefore, the renewal process should begin 3 to 6 months before the expiry of the trademark.
- Form-18 is used to file the application, with the requisite fees. The application is reviewed for quality before it is finally approved for renewal.

A trademark expires after a period of 10 years. It is ideal to apply for a trademark renewal in India 6 months before the end date but not 1 year prior to the end date. A trademark renewal fee will be charged.
Usually a trademark is valid only in the country it is registered or filled in. Nevertheless, you can register it in other countries individually or by using CTM or WIPO to apply to multiple countries.
