Design registration renewal services provided by Unimarks Legal Solutions are designed to make this process as effortless as possible for you, ensuring that your design remains protected for the maximum term permitted by law.
The process of renewing your design registration may vary depending on your jurisdiction. Some may require renewals every five years, while others may offer longer terms. Regardless of the specifics, each renewal represents an important opportunity to reassess your design’s value, its relevance in the current market, and your strategy for its continued protection and commercialization.
Unimarks assists in all aspects of the renewal process, from alerting you well ahead of the renewal deadline to handling all the necessary paperwork associated with the renewal application. This includes drafting the application, paying the renewal fees, and submitting the renewal application to the appropriate office.

We diligently track all the crucial dates related to your design registration and initiate the renewal process well in advance, ensuring that your design rights never lapse due to an oversight.
Through our design registration renewal services, we ensure that your design continues to enjoy the legal protection and market exclusivity it deserves, safeguarding your creative efforts and their commercial potential.
