Trademark administration in Bangladesh is handled by the Department of Patents, Designs and Trademarks (DPDT), functioning under the Ministry of Industries. DPDT is responsible for the receipt, examination, publication, opposition, and registration of trademarks in Bangladesh. The trademark system follows a first-to-file principle and involves formality review, substantive examination for registrability, publication in the official Trademarks Journal, opposition proceedings, and issuance of registration certificates. Foreign applicants are required to file trademark applications through an authorized local trademark agent in Bangladesh.
Exclusive Rights: Grants you the sole right to use the mark for your registered goods/services, preventing others from using confusingly similar marks.
Legal Protection: Offers strong legal recourse against infringement, allowing you to initiate action in courts for unauthorized use or counterfeiting.
Nationwide Protection: Extends protection across all of Bangladesh, not just your local area.
The Bangladesh trademark registration system follows a structured sequence of reviews, publications, and legal checks. These steps ensure that trademarks meet all statutory requirements and remain protected over time.
Trademark applications are filed with DPDT through an authorized local trademark agent. The application includes applicant particulars, representation of the mark, and specification of goods/services under the Nice Classification. An application number is allotted upon filing.
DPDT conducts a formal and substantive examination to assess registrability, including distinctiveness and potential conflicts with earlier marks.
If accepted, the trademark application is published in the Trade Marks Journal.
Third parties may file an opposition within 2 months from the date of publication.
If no opposition is filed, or if opposition proceedings are resolved in favor of the applicant, the trademark proceeds to registration and a certificate is issued
