Any trademark application that meets the requirements of formal examination will be announced, and within 30 days after the announcement, the Industrial Property Office will conduct a significant examination of the trademark application. If no prior right trademark is found and no one raises any objection, the trademark application will be registered.

The response period to the official decision of the Industrial Property Office is usually 90 days, which can be extended by application for 60 days. Sometimes, this period can be 30 days. As an exception, there is also a notice period of 10 days.

2. Trademark objection:

Trademark objection must be raised within 30 days after the date of announcement, and the trademark applicant shall be informed of the objection. The trademark applicant and the objector fail to reach a settlement agreement within 1 year from the date of the notice of objection, and the applicant fails to implement litigation (such as defense and counterclaim), or the litigation period expires, the trademark application shall be deemed to have been abandoned. Parties with different opinions can avoid litigation through a one-year agreement period. The Industrial Property Office will make a ruling based on the agreement reached by the opposing parties, which is not litigious. If the two parties fail to reach a settlement agreement, the Industrial Property Office shall send the dissenter's objection documents to the Federal Civil and Commercial Court of Buenos Aires within 10 days, and the court's ruling on the objection must be executed by the Industrial Property Office.
