Recently, the Ukrainian Institute of Intellectual Property has opened access to the trademark registry of Ukraine .

The database of trademarks of Ukraine currently has more than 300,000 entries.

Advantages of an open trademark registry:

1. Free and quick search of the brand;

3. Openness of the system;
4. Search for various variations of the brand or mark;

More on each item:

Having a number of variants of the name, you can check the TM in the registry and do not spend efforts to work out the already registered designations. After conducting a search, you will receive information from the register of trademarks about which signs are already registered, so you can make corrections to the name you have invented.
Now you do not need to pay extra for the search, you can independently conduct a trademark verification, without the help of patent attorneys. It is important to understand that such a free search will show only registered brands. You will not be able to see the submitted applications. For this you need to conduct a full search.

As we wrote above, the search is conducted only by registered marks and signs. This means that you will not be able to get information on the submitted applications. The stage of consideration of applications takes from 8 to 23 months, respectively, we will not see these applications. There is a full search for this, but it will not work to conduct it without the help of a patent attorney.
Sometimes the system fails and checks fail. Most likely, these are temporary difficulties associated with setting up the base. It is worth noting that every day the frequency of such interruptions is less and less - it inspires hope.
