European Union Community System (WIPO)

Obtaining Copyright Abroad

The trademark registration right you have earned in Turkey is not valid abroad. For this reason, to protect your trademark rights abroad, you need to register your trademark abroad as well. One of the places to apply for this is the European Union Community System (WIPO). This system covers European Union member countries. Countries that are not EU members, like Turkey, can apply to the system called CTM. However, the CTM system has some negative, constraining aspects. Some of these are: For this application, you must carry out this process with an active representative company in the EU. If, after applying, any of these European Union member countries does not approve your registration application, it will be considered invalid in those countries even if other countries approve it. However, despite this, the cancellation of the registration application has been made difficult in this procedure.
