FAQ – Registering a Trademark in Australia from Sri Lanka
How can I register a trademark in Australia from Sri Lanka?
Sri Lankan individuals and businesses can register a trademark in Australia without travelling to Australia. The entire process can be completed remotely by filing an application with IP Australia, including trademark searches, correct class selection, and submission. We manage the full Australian trademark registration process on your behalf from Sri Lanka.
Can a Sri Lankan company or individual own an Australian trademark?
Yes. Australian trademark law allows foreign applicants, including Sri Lankan companies and individuals, to legally own and register trademarks in Australia. You do not need to incorporate a company or maintain an address in Australia to register a trademark.
How long does it take to register a trademark in Australia?
Trademark registration in Australia generally takes seven to nine months, provided there are no objections from IP Australia. If an examination report or objection is issued, the process may take longer, but many objections can be successfully resolved with proper professional handling.
Why should Sri Lankan businesses register a trademark in Australia early?
Australia follows a first‑to‑file trademark system. This means that if another party registers your brand name or logo before you do, they may legally prevent you from using that brand in Australia, even if it is already registered or well‑known in Sri Lanka.
What costs are involved in registering a trademark in Australia?
The cost of registering a trademark in Australia depends on factors such as the number of trademark classes, whether the application is for a word mark or logo, and the complexity of the filing. We provide clear and upfront pricing before proceeding, with no hidden charges.
