TRADE MARKS

These Regulations make provision for the operation of the Council Regulation (EC) No. 40/94 of 20th December 1993 on the Community trade mark (O.J. No. L 11, 14.1.94, p.1) (“the Community Trade Mark Regulation”). A Community trade mark registered at the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (trade marks and designs) under the Community Trade Mark Regulation has effect throughout the Community. As a result of the Community’s accession to the Madrid Agreement Concerning the International Registration of Marks (adopted at Madrid on 27th June 1989), holders of an international registration under that Protocol may apply for protection of their marks under the Community trade mark system; and conversely applicants for, or proprietors of, a Community trade mark may apply for international protection of their marks under the Protocol. The provision made by these Regulations in respect of the Community trade mark also extends to marks protected under that Protocol in the territory of the Community.
