BAGHDAD – The Directorate of Patents and Industrial Designs in Iraq has issued new requirements for trademark licensing.
The new required documents are as follows:
- Power of attorney legalised;
- License agreement document signed by the licensee legalised, and
- Certificate of incorporation or extract from the commercial register of the licensee.
Please note that recording of the license of use agreements is not possible on trademarks registered in classes 1 to 34 in the case where both the licensee and the licensor are in the commercial and not in the industrial sector. In addition, the licensee’s activities must match the services for which the trademark is registered.
