Country-specific decision

One unitary EU right across all member states

An EU trade mark is a unitary right covering all EU member states through one application. The application is examined and, if accepted, published for a three-month opposition period.

  • A single EUIPO application can create one trade mark right valid across every EU member state.
  • The unitary route is assessed for the EU as a whole; national registrations remain separate complementary options.
  • If a unitary application cannot proceed, conversion into national applications may be available in qualifying circumstances and requires case-specific review.
