The National Trademark Office will rank the number of trademark office applications for foreign-related trademarks every quarter (every year). The authoritative ranking is based on the number of applications. Foreign-related trademark applications are divided into Madrid applications and country-by-country applications. The number of Madrid applications is calculated as one application, that is, one application is calculated as one even if dozens of countries are selected. Of course, one country application itself is one application per country, and the number of countries applied for is calculated based on the number of trademarks. . If more than one of the countries you are applying for belong to the countries where you applied in Madrid, it is recommended to apply through Madrid, which will save you a lot of fees.
