Trademark registration procedure in Guyana:

A trademark can be registered in Guyana pursuant to the Trade Marks Act (Chapter 90:01) which provides for both local trade mark applications dating from receipt of the application and applications to extend rights under a UK registration with effect from the date of registration in the UK. It usually takes between 18-24 months for the Registrar of Deeds at The Deeds Registry in the Ministry of Legal Affairs to process a local application for registration. A UK -based application will usually take about six months to be processed. Once the registration is complete The Deeds Registry will issue a Certificate of Registration. The protection lasts 10 years from the filing date.

Trademark renewal in Guyana: A local trademark registration is valid for 10 years after which it can be renewed for more 10 years periods. If the local registration is to be renewed the only documentation required is a Power of Attorney. A UK-based trade mark registration is valid for the same period that is shown on the UK Certificate and can be renewed once the underlying UK registration has been renewed. If the UK-based registration is to be renewed the only documentation required is power of attorney and a certified copy of the UK Certificate of Registration showing the renewal. It usually takes six months or less for The Deeds Registry to process an application for renewal. Once the renewal is complete The Deeds Registry will issue a Notice of Renewal.
