Holders of International Registrations seeking extension of protection to Mexico are likely to face several challenges for obtaining the registration in Mexico due to the overly-strict criteria adopted by the IMPI during formal and substantive examination of trademark applications. Thus, this webinar is designed to provide useful information and tips that might help IR owners prepare applications complying with local practices and requirements thereby enabling them to avoid, as much as possible, provisional refusals. In addition, the webinar will offer strategies concerning special maintenance requirements that must be filed directly with the MTO (namely: licenses, declarations of use).
