Trademark Registration in Thailand
Protecting your brand is one of the most important investments you can make for your business in today’s competitive marketplace.
Why Trademark Protection Matters
Your trademark is far more than simply a logo or product name it represents your reputation, your unique story, and the emotional connection your customers have built with your brand over time. Without proper registration, your brand remains vulnerable to imitation, misuse, or even complete loss of ownership rights.
A registered trademark provides you with exclusive rights to use your mark throughout Thailand, offering comprehensive legal protection against infringement and counterfeiting. It also grants you the valuable ability to license or transfer your trademark rights, whilst significantly enhancing your brand’s value when expanding operations locally or internationally.
At Fig Tree, we assist both local and international businesses in registering their trademarks with the Department of Intellectual Property (DIP) in Thailand. Our dedicated team’s goal is to make the entire process clear, fully compliant, and effortless, ensuring that your brand receives proper protection under Thai law.
From Bangkok-based startups to global investors, our clients trust us because we deliver not only documents but also genuine peace of mind ensuring their brands are protected with clarity, care, and unwavering confidence throughout the entire journey.

Our Comprehensive Registration Process
We manage the entire trademark registration journey from initial review through to final certificate issuance. Every step is handled with meticulous attention to detail and direct coordination with the Department of Intellectual Property, ensuring your brand receives the protection it deserves.
Trademark Search & Advisory
We begin by thoroughly reviewing your proposed mark and conducting a comprehensive trademark search to ensure your brand does not conflict with any existing registered marks. Our experienced advisors provide tailored recommendations on how to increase approval chances, including expert guidance on class selection and optimal mark presentation.
Document Preparation & Submission
Once confirmed, we prepare all required documents in both Thai and English, including the trademark application form, detailed list of goods and services, power of attorney, and proof of applicant identity or company registration. We then submit the complete application to the DIP on your behalf with precision and care.
Examination & Clarification
After submission, the DIP conducts formal and substantive examination of your application. If clarification or amendment is required during this critical phase, our dedicated team handles all communication with examiners, ensuring responses are accurate and submitted well within the required timeframe.
Publication & Opposition Period
Once your mark successfully passes examination, it is published in the Trademark Gazette for 60 days to allow for any third-party opposition. We monitor this period closely and keep you fully updated on any notice or action that may be required to protect your interests.
Registration & Certificate Issuance
If no opposition occurs, or after successful resolution of any challenges, the DIP issues the official Certificate of Trademark Registration. We collect the certificate, carefully review all details for accuracy, and provide the official copy to you along with comprehensive guidance on maintaining your trademark rights for the full 10-year term.
