Request a Turkish design opposition review
Send the published design details, the representations being challenged and the earlier material you rely on. Identify the publication date and the basis of your objection.
How we assist
- Publication and deadline review
- Earlier-design and evidence assessment
- Preparation of opposition grounds
- Filing and status reporting
Documents required
Send the contested application details, earlier designs or publications, dated evidence, ownership information and any relevant correspondence.
The comparison starts with the protected visual features
Before preparing an opposition, we identify which views and features define the overall impression and which elements may be dictated by technical function. The earlier disclosure, filing dates and ownership chain are then checked against the target registration. This creates a focused pleading supported by the right evidence, rather than a general statement that the designs look similar.
Case-specific proposal
The required evidence and scope vary by case. We provide a document list and fee proposal after the initial review.
Design opposition deadline and evidence checklist
Send the published registration and individual design numbers, publication date, all contested views, earlier dated disclosures or right records and the basis of ownership. Evidence should identify what was disclosed, when and to whom; undated images alone may not establish an earlier disclosure.

Frequently asked questions
What should a design opposition evidence set contain?
Include dated earlier material, its source and the images relevant to the visual comparison. Explain which features support the objection rather than sending an unlabelled collection of images.
Can you review the opposition before quoting the filing?
Send the registration and publication details with the supporting material. The proposal identifies the assessment, evidence organisation and filing work requested.
