How to File a Trademark in
Philippines
Trademark registration is essential for brand protection in Philippines. While residents can file directly, non-residents must appoint a local representative.
Brealant offers expert guidance, guiding you through a seamless and efficient filing process every step of the way.
Here’s how Philippines residents can file a trademark application:
- Create an online account with IPOPHL (Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines).
- Search for similar marks (Nice classes).

- Prepare
mark image/word, owner details, goods/services, priority (if any).
- Choose specs
pick‑list (where available) or custom wording.
- File online, pay official fees.
- Track
review examination reports, respond if needed.
Filing before IPOPHL requires careful classification and timely DAU (Declaration of Actual Use) filings. Many applications lapse due to missed deadlines. Brealant manages filings, renewals, DAU, and monitoring to keep your mark secure.
