Trademark Renewal Overview
- A trademark is valid for 10 years and can be renewed again and again. It’s best to start the renewal at least 6 months before it expires. If you miss it, reminders are sent to your registered address.
- If you don’t act, the Trademark Registrar may publish a notice to cancel the trademark. Even after expiry, it can still be restored within 6 to 12 months by paying an extra fee.
Essential Documents for Renewal
- To successfully renew your trademark, you’ll need the following essential documents:
- Filled Form TM-R
- Certificate of existing trademark registration
- Authorization letter (if using an agent)
- ID and address proof of the trademark owner
Trademark Renewal Process
- Every 10 years, you must renew your trademark. Here’s how:
- Submit Form TM-R
- Pay the required renewal fees
- Make sure there are no objections or legal issues
- Once approved, you'll receive the renewal certificate
- If renewal is delayed, you may face fines or risk losing the trademark.

Some common questions
were often asked
When should I renew my trademark to avoid penalties or cancellation?
A trademark should be renewed before its expiration, which is 10 years from the date of registration. You can file for renewal up to six months before the expiry date. Delays can lead to penalties or cancellation.
What happens if I forget to renew my trademark?
If you fail to renew your trademark within the grace period (typically six months after the expiration date), it will be removed from the Trademark Register. However, you may still restore it by filing a restoration application within one additional year.
Can I make changes to my trademark during the renewal process?
No, a trademark renewal is limited to extending the validity of your registered mark. If you wish to make changes to the logo, name, or other elements, you must file a separate application to modify or register a new trademark.
Do I need to submit documents for trademark renewal?
Yes, typically, you need the trademark registration certificate, the renewal application form (Form TM-R in India), proof of identity, and the prescribed renewal fee.
Is it possible to transfer ownership during the renewal process?
Yes, ownership of the trademark can be transferred before or during the renewal process. However, you must file the necessary assignment documents with the trademark office to update the ownership details.
Can I renew a trademark registered in another country from India?
No, trademarks are territorial. If your trademark is registered in another country, you must renew it according to that country’s trademark laws. International trademarks under the Madrid Protocol can be renewed centrally through WIPO.
