Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between assignment and licensing?

Assignment is a permanent transfer of ownership of the trademark. Licensing allows another party to use the mark while the original owner retains ownership.

Does assignment need to be registered?

While the assignment is valid between parties upon execution, recordal with the Trademark Registry is essential to protect the assignee's rights against third parties.

Can a trademark be assigned without goodwill?

Yes. Under the Trade Marks Act, 1999, a trademark can be assigned with or without the goodwill of the business associated with it.
