What is the priority principle for trademark registration in Indonesia?

The basis for the creation of trademark rights has been changed from the first-to-use principle to the first-to-registration principle. The prior registrant of a trademark enjoys the exclusive right to use the trademark. Trademark rights require that trademark registration be based on bona fide claims. The types of trademarks are: commodity trademarks, service trademarks and collective trademarks. Indonesia’s goods and services classification system adopts a dual-track system. Goods and services are divided into 35 categories. The first 34 categories adopt international classifications, and the 35th category adopts domestic classifications, which mainly refers to service classifications. The international treaties and international organizations that Indonesia participates in include: "Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property (Stockholm Act)", "Trademark Law Treaty", and World Intellectual Property Organization.
