Iraq Updates Trademark Filing Procedure with New Fee Requirements

As of 07.04.2024, the Directorate of Patents and Industrial Designs in Iraq announced that the official publication fees must be paid along with the official filing fees. Previously, after obtaining the initial acceptance from the TMO, applicants could file the trademark application after the payment of the official filing fees. The TMO would then review the formalities of the application (i.e. submission of the PoA) and send a request to pay the official publication fees. Per the new practice, however, the official publication fees must be paid with the official filing fees.
