Country-specific decision

Eligible ownership and an Australian examination path

An Australian application must name an owner with legal personality and define the goods and services. A standard application is examined and, if accepted, published before registration.

  • The owner must have legal personality; a business name or trading name alone cannot own the registration.
  • The application identifies the mark and the particular goods and services for which protection is requested.
  • Acceptance is advertised for opposition, and registration cannot occur before the statutory minimum period has passed.

Typical process and timeline

At least 7 months is the verified planning measure for filing to registration. It is not a promise for an individual application.

    Confirm the eligible owner, proposed mark, and goods and services.

  2. 2

    After professional review and customer approval, submit the application to IP Australia.

  3. 3

    A standard application is usually examined in three to four months, subject to the office queue and case issues.

  4. 4

    If accepted, the application is advertised for a two-month opposition period.

  5. 5

    If no issue prevents it, registration can follow once at least seven months have passed from filing.
