What are the filing requirements?

In order to file your trademark application in Sweden, we will need:

Trademark Information

You will need to provide us with information about the trademark and the goods/services that will be used in connection with the trademark. We also need the name and address of the owner of the trademark. This information will be requested once you fill up the order form.

Power of Attorney

In Sweden, the Trademark Office requires that the owner of the trademark send us a signed Power of Attorney document. We will send you a template for the document with delivery instructions once your order for trademark registration has been placed.
Nor notarization or legalization of the document is needed.

Once trademark is filed, what’s next?

After your trademark is filed in Sweden, it will enter the following phases:

Registration
If there is no pending objection or opposition, your trademark will be approved for registration.
In Sweden, the approximate time from filing to registration is 6 months.

Publication
In this phase trademark is published.

Third parties can oppose your application for a period of 90 days after the trademark has been published. In the event that an objection or opposition arises, we will inform you about this along with possible actions to take. If no one opposes the trademark, then the trademark will be approved for registration.

Examination
In this phase, the Trademark Office will review your trademark application and check if all formalities are accurate and complete. Then, the Trademark Office will review the trademark itself and check:
-Preexisting registrations of similar trademarks (either graphically or phonetically) that may cause a "likelihood of confusion."
-Similarities with well-known foreign trademarks that may or may not be registered in the specific country or territory.
-Whether the trademark could be considered generic, indicative or descriptive.
-Use of certain words, names, symbols or other marks that are not acceptable for registration.

What are objections & oppositions?

Both objections and oppositions are obstacles that can arise during the registration of your trademark. If they are not addressed, the trademark will most likely be rejected.

Objections
Objections are concerns that the Trademark Office might have during the “Examination” phase of your trademark. In order to overcome the objection, our attorneys will need to file a response to the Trademark Office.

Oppositions
Once your trademark is published, third parties can oppose your application. There might be different reasons for oppositions; the most common is on the grounds of it not being distinctive. In order to overcome the oppositions, our attorneys will need to file a defense with the Trademark Office.

To decrease the risk of objections and oppositions, we recommend ordering a Trademark Comprehensive Study before proceeding with the application.
