Trademark Registration in Bolivia

Trademark registration takes about 12 months. Bolivia is a member of the Andean Community Pact, and certain rights are also obtained in the other member countries of the pact (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela). A notarized power of attorney legalized by the Bolivian consulate is required. This power of attorney must be submitted within 60 days of the filing date. The international Nice Classification applies. Trademark protection lasts 10 years. Oppositions can be filed within 30 days of publication of the mark in the official bulletin. The trademark can be renewed indefinitely every 10 years.
