A local partner for Portuguese filings
Applicants abroad can generally act before the INPI themselves. An agent or law firm may still prefer a local partner to prepare the filing and follow the process, which runs in Portuguese.
A national registration only protects in Portugal. Where your client needs wider coverage, we can advise on how Portugal fits with the other markets we cover.
- National trademark applications at the INPI
- Follow-up until registration, including notifications in Portuguese
- Choice of the Nice classes of goods and services
- Guidance on extending protection to our other markets
Requirements, fees and deadlines are confirmed for each filing.
