Local representation in Turkey Serving applicants and IP firms worldwide
Quick answer

A registered Turkish trademark is protected for ten years from its application date and can be renewed for further ten-year terms. Examination and registration timing vary; the two-month opposition period starts with publication of the application in the Official Trademark Bulletin.

LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT RIGHT?

Patent and design matters use separate Turkish filing routes.

If your instruction concerns a technical invention, use our patent application services in Turkey. If it concerns product appearance, use our design patent services / industrial design registration in Turkey. This page is reserved for trademark filing and registration.

Turkey filing strategy starts with scope and ownership

A Turkish trademark application should identify the correct owner and a specification that reflects the applicant’s actual commercial plan. A literal translation of a foreign specification may contain unclear or unnecessarily broad terms that create examination and enforcement difficulties.

Before filing, we review the mark, applicant details, priority position, relevant Nice classes and potentially conflicting Turkish records. The filing route is then aligned with publication, opposition monitoring and post-registration record management.

Ready to file a trademark in Turkey?

If you have selected the mark and need a Turkish application, send the owner details and intended goods or services. We review the filing scope and priority position before preparing the instruction. If you first need a search, that work is identified separately.

What the proposal covers

A filing proposal identifies the class count, agreed goods and services, application preparation and filing, and the reporting stages included. It states whether clearance, registration-stage fees, a refusal appeal or an opposition response are included or require a separate instruction.

How to start

Send the wording or logo, legal owner name and address, proposed goods and services and any priority filing. We reply with the document checklist and fee scope; you approve the specification and instruction before submission.

Trademark filing process in Turkey

  • Prepare the goods and services under the appropriate Nice classes
  • File the national application and issue a filing report

Trademark registration fees in Turkey

The cost depends on the number of Nice classes, the filing scope, any priority claim and whether an objection or opposition arises later. After reviewing the mark and goods or services, we provide a case-specific proposal separating the applicable official costs and professional service.

How long does trademark registration take in Turkey?

The timetable depends on examination, publication and whether a refusal or third-party opposition occurs. We confirm the current procedural stage and report each official development rather than presenting an unconditional completion date.

For overseas applicants and foreign associates

Instructions can be handled remotely in English. We provide a clear document request, confirm the filing scope before submission and keep the applicant or instructing associate informed of official correspondence throughout the Turkish procedure.

After the application is filed

We monitor the file and report examination results, publication and registration developments. If a refusal or opposition arises, the issue is separated from the original filing scope and a case-specific recommendation is provided before further action.

Intellectual property lawyer or trademark representative?

If you are searching for an intellectual property lawyer in Turkey, the right professional depends on the matter. Trademark clearance, filing and prosecution before TÜRKPATENT are handled through trademark representation; court litigation requires separately admitted legal counsel. We define the procedural scope before instruction so foreign applicants and IP firms know which route is required.

Trademark priority, publication and protection term

A registered Turkish trademark is protected for ten years from its application date and can be renewed for further ten-year terms. Examination and registration timing vary; the two-month opposition period starts with publication of the application in the Official Trademark Bulletin.

A conventional priority claim is generally based on an eligible earlier filing made within six months. The claim is made with the Turkish application; the priority document must be provided within three months after filing.

For preparation, send the mark wording or clear logo, the legal owner’s name and address, the proposed goods and services, and any priority filing details. We confirm the Turkish specification, class count, representative details and any additional authorisation documents before submission.

Frequently asked questions

What is required for trademark registration in Turkey?

The initial review normally requires the mark, applicant name and address, intended goods and services, priority details if applicable, and any relevant filing deadline.

Can a foreign applicant file a trademark in Turkey?

Yes. Foreign applicants and international IP firms may instruct us remotely for review, filing and English-language reporting before TÜRKPATENT.

Should we conduct a trademark search before filing?

A pre-filing review can identify potentially relevant earlier records and classification issues. Its scope and limitations should be agreed separately from the filing instruction.

How much does trademark registration in Turkey cost?

The proposal separates official filing and registration fees from professional work. The class count, specification, priority claim and any later refusal or opposition affect the total; send the mark and goods or services for a defined quote.

What does a Turkey trademark filing quote include?

The quote identifies the classes, goods and services, filing preparation, official costs, professional fees and reporting scope. Searches, registration-stage fees and later refusal or opposition work are identified as included or separately quoted.
