EU Trademark Registration
Register and protect your trademark across all 27 European Union Member States with one application.
An EU trademark gives your brand broad protection across the European Union through a single filing with the European Union Intellectual Property Office, EUIPO. It is a practical and cost-effective route for businesses launching, selling, manufacturing, exporting, or expanding within the EU.

Protect Your Brand Across The EU
If your business operates in more than one EU country, or plans to expand across Europe, an EU trademark can help protect your brand name, logo, product name, slogan, or other distinctive sign across the entire EU market.
At IP Meridian, we support businesses with clear, practical legal advice before filing, during the application process, and after registration. We help reduce the risk of refusal, opposition, or weak protection by reviewing your trademark, identifying risks, selecting the right classes, and preparing a structured filing strategy.
Why Register an EU Trademark?
One Application, EU-Wide Protection
Stronger Brand Security
Cost-Effective Expansion
Valuable Business Asset
Renewable Protection
A single EU trademark registration provides exclusive rights across all 27 EU Member States.
Prevent competitors from using identical or confusingly similar names, logos, or signs in the EU market.
An EU trademark is often more efficient than filing separate national applications in multiple EU countries.
A registered trademark can support licensing, franchising, investment, acquisitions, and long-term brand value.
An EU trademark is valid for 10 years and can be renewed indefinitely for further 10-year periods.

EU Trademark vs National Trademark
An EU trademark is ideal when you need protection across several EU countries. A national trademark may be more suitable if your business is focused only on one country or if there are higher conflict risks in part of the EU.
IP Meridian can help you decide whether an EU trademark, national trademark, or combined filing strategy is the better option for your business.
