Trademark protection

Your business name, logo or concept is an asset, but it is only truly safe once it is protected. In Vietnam, trademarks are usually given priority to the first valid applicant, so this should be done early, ideally before making major investments in the brand.

When you need it

• You are about to launch a new name or concept.
• The brand has been running for some time, but no application for protection has been filed.
• You are about to open a chain, franchise, or raise capital.
• You suspect another party is using an identical or similar name.

What Stratego does

• Search the name and assess the likelihood of protection.
• Advise on how to file: name, logo, and product and service classes to register.
• Prepare, file, and monitor the application until a result is obtained.

You receive

• Assess the risks before you invest in that name.
• The trademark application is filed correctly.
• One point of contact to track the progress of the application.

The granting of the certificate is decided by the state authority, so we clearly state the risks upfront rather than promising certain results. The paid legal consultation is contracted and invoiced by the law firm of the Legal seat.
