A trademark can protect a name, logo, sound or other mark that distinguishes goods and services. The company's entry in CEIDG itself does not provide the same protection as the trademark protection right.

Where to report

  • UPRP - protection on the territory of Poland,
  • EUIPO - one EU mark covering EU countries,
  • WIPO - Madrid system allowing the selection of selected countries after meeting the conditions.

Protection is granted for 10 years and can be renewed for subsequent periods.

The fee depends on the classes and method of application

There is no single total price for "registration in Poland". In the Polish Patent Office, there is an application fee, additional fees for subsequent classes, and, after the decision, a fee for the first period of protection and publication.

At EUIPO, the basic online fee is for one class, with additional classes increasing the price. The current price list must be checked on the day of application; the rate of EUR 850 does not describe all the costs of the proceedings or the attorney.

Check for collisions first

The Office does not assess the business value of a brand. Before filing an application, it is worth searching the registers of identical and similar marks and selecting the correct Nice classes. A list that is too narrow limits protection, and a list that is too broad increases the cost and risk of opposition.

Settlement in JDG

Fees for registering your own brand should not be automatically treated as an intangible asset just because the amount exceeds PLN 10,000.

Certain acquired rights suitable for economic use are subject to depreciation in PIT. The right created on its own and the expenses for its registration require a separate assessment as running costs or an element of the acquired right.

When purchasing a registered mark from another entity, an amortized intangible asset may be created. The purchase price, period of use and connection with the activity are important.On a lump sum basis, expenses do not reduce income.
