Advice Summary

What does Brexit mean for Trade Marks?

The UK government and EU set out their agreed position on many of the issues related to intellectual property rights in the Draft Withdrawal Agreement. The UK government has also published papers explaining the approach in the event no agreement can be reached. Our consistent advice, which we still consider to be the best course of action, is that in order to protect brands in the EU, it remains appropriate to continue filing trade mark applications at the EUIPO, and that there is no legal necessity for dual filing in the UK.
