Qualifications of the applicant: Mexican law stipulates that anyone engaged in industry, businessmen and service providers can use a trademark in their own business, trade or services and apply for registration with the trademark registration authority. However, the exclusive right to use a trademark was obtained with the approval of the authorities.

Documents required for application:

1. Name and address of the applicant;

2. Apply for goods or services;

3. Trademark pattern;

4. A copy of the applicant's identity certificate or business license.

Review process:

After the application for trademark registration is filed, the authorities will conduct a preliminary examination of the form of the application. If the review is flawed, the applicant can

It shall be revised within 2 months after being notified by the competent department. If it cannot be amended on schedule, its application will be considered as abandonment. If the application documents are complete, the registration authority will conduct substantive examination on whether the trademark can be registered. After the examination, the competent authority will notify the applicant in writing of the obstacles affecting his trademark registration, and ask the applicant to give a reply within 2 months. If the applicant can't give a reply within the time limit, his application will be regarded as abandoned.
