In Thailand, an application to register trademark must be:
- Completed on an official form in the Thai language, with specimens of the mark attached.
- Filed by the owner or his/her agent or lawyer under a Power of Attorney, who must have a permanent place of business in Thailand or a contact address which the Trademark Registrar can contact
- Filed with the Department of Intellectual Property
In accordance with the Trademark Act for purposes of instituting legal proceedings related to 4 types of trademark, if the applicant or owner of a mark is not a permanent resident in Thailand, the business office or premises of such person or his/her lawyer or agent, as stated in the application or recorded in the register, shall be considered as the permanent residence of such person.
If the Trademark Office deems that the trademark can be registered, and if no opposition to the trademark arises within 60 days of its publication in the official journal, the Trademark Registrar will grant a trademark registration.
