On May 21, 2017 WIPO launched the all-new Member Profile Database at the annual INTA Madrid System Users’ Meeting. This highly anticipated e-service offers a portal to the trademark rules and examination procedures of Madrid System members, putting a wealth of vital information at your fingertips.
When preparing an international trademark application, use the Member Profiles Database to uncover details about trademark offices in your target markets, including which types of trademarks can be protected and how to file an international application through your ‘home’ Office of origin.
After you’ve registered your trademark through the Madrid System, the database’s simple interface gives you access to key procedures and time limits applicable in the countries or regions of Madrid System Members you have designated under your international registration.
Read on to find out how get started with the Member Profiles Database.
