Registering a trademark with the SIPO (Slovenian Intellectual Property Office) takes about 6–12 months if there are no oppositions or errors in the application. Complex cases may take up to 18 months.
The deadline for filing an opposition is 3 months from the publication of the application in the Uradni List (SIPO’s official bulletin).
In Slovenia, you can register word marks, figurative marks, combined marks, sound marks, color marks, three-dimensional marks, motion marks, and holograms, provided they are distinctive and can be clearly represented.
The certificate is valid for 10 years from the filing date and can be renewed indefinitely every 10 years.
The owner has the exclusive right to use the mark commercially in Slovenia, prohibit others from using similar marks, and transfer or license the trademark rights.
The filing fee is approximately $100–200 for one class of goods/services. Additional costs may include fees for extra classes or legal services.
No, use is not mandatory, but non-use for 5 consecutive years after registration may lead to cancellation upon third-party request.
If the trademark is not renewed within 10 years from the filing date, the registration is canceled. Reinstatement is possible within 6 months after the deadline by paying an additional fee.
Slovenia is home to more than two million people. This small country has a strong economy and excellent conditions for business development. Here you can both keep existing business, or start from scratch. Many want to take a place in this market. The government creates conditions for entrepreneurs, including the foreign ones.
The business launched shall be marked by a trademark registration in Slovenia. This will help ensure protection from abuse and unfair actions of competitors. There are several ways to register, i.e. international and national procedures. If TM is registered in two or more countries, the Madrid registration system would be the best option. If the goal is to market in one country, you can register a trademark in Slovenia.
