RAMALLAH – The Ministry of National Economy has introduced new amendments to the trademark registration process.
Applicants may now request a one-month extension for specific deadlines, subject to a fee of $14. This applies to the following transactions:
- Late submission of required documents;
- Replying to an Examiner’s office action refusal decision;
- Submitting an opposition against a published trademark application;
- Filing a response to an opposition;
- Filing a response to a cancellation action;
- Submitting evidence in an opposition case, and
- Submitting evidence in a cancellation action case.
The same fee and rules also apply to requests for suspending trademark application procedures due to opposition initiated by third parties.
Applicants may submit additional extension requests as long as they are filed before the extended deadline.
