Step 2. Trademark Registration Request
Trademark registration in Peru is a jurisdiction-specific legal process governed by applicable national legislation and administered by the local intellectual property office. It generally involves the classification of goods and services under the Nice Classification system, the filing of a formal application, and a substantive examination to evaluate grounds for refusal—such as descriptiveness, similarity to existing marks, or conflict with public interest. Applications in Peru may also be subject to third-party opposition following publication.
Working with a licensed trademark attorney in Peru helps ensure procedural compliance with requirements such as documentary formalities, power of attorney execution, use claims, and priority assertions under applicable treaties. This legal oversight is critical for addressing examination objections, navigating oppositions, and maintaining post-registration rights.
Once registered, a trademark grants the applicant exclusive usage rights in Peru for a renewable term—typically 10 years. A strategically managed registration process not only strengthens the mark’s enforceability but also enhances its long-term commercial value and legal standing within Peru’s evolving IP framework.
