Trademark registration in Tunisia allows for multi-class applications, meaning applicants can file a single application covering multiple classes of goods and/or services under the Nice Classification.
Applicants must present a clear copy of the trademark and remit official fees.
A substantive examination checks distinctiveness and possible conflicts with existing trademarks.
Registration remains valid for 10 years from the filing date, renewable for further 10-year periods.
Applicants must accurately provide their name, address, and a concise list of goods and services.
As Tunisia participates in the Madrid System, foreign applicants may designate Tunisia through an international filing for broader coverage.
Once granted, trademark rights may be enforced through administrative channels or civil actions if unauthorized use occurs in the Tunisian market.
