Do you need to protect anything else in Portugal?
Renewal keeps an already registered trademark in force. If you want to register a new trademark, or protect the shape of a product, an invention or a work, each of these has its own form of protection and its own procedure. Trademarks, patents and designs are handled by the Portuguese INPI, each with its own file and fee; copyright, by the General Inspectorate of Cultural Activities (IGAC), where registration is optional.
New trademark
If you are launching a new name, logo or product line, you need a registration of its own: renewal does not extend the protection of the existing trademark.
Example: a second brand for another product line.
Term: 10 years, renewable indefinitely for equal periods.
Register a trademark in PortugalIndustrial design
Protects the external appearance of a product: its shape, lines or ornamentation. It does not protect the name.
Example: the silhouette of a bottle or the design of a package.
Register an industrial design in PortugalPatent of invention
Protects a new technical solution with an inventive step and industrial application: a mechanism, a process or a product with a function.
Example: a locking system or a manufacturing method.
Register a patent in PortugalCopyright
Protects works: texts, music, software, photographs or audiovisual works. In Portugal it arises upon creation; registration with the IGAC is optional and serves as proof of authorship and date.
Example: the code of an app or an illustrated catalog.
