The Circumstances Under Which the Trademark May be Cancelled according to Egyptian Law


According to the Egyptian IP Law No. 82 /2002, the cancellation of a trademark under the said Law may take place either by administrative authority (the Egyptian Trademarks Office) or judicial authority (the Administrative Courts). Administrative cancellation through (the Egyptian Trademarks Office) occurs when the legal protection period of a trademark prescribed in the above mentioned Law is lapsed without being renewed. The protection period of a trademark under Egyptian Law is ten years as of the date of filing and may be renewed during the last year for another period. If the protection period has been lapsed without submitting a request to renew the trademark registration for another period, the Egyptian Trademarks Office shall automatically cancel the registration of the trademark.
